Teatro Serpiente is a true community theater effort. We believe in bringing theater directly to our communities in Taos and the surrounding area, and have now put up productions at nearly every theater space in the region (our own stage in Des Montes; Working Class Theatre’s Playhouse; Metta Theater; Dixon’s Toolshed) and at both Taos Mesa Brewing and KTAOS Solar Center.
We hold open auditions for most of our productions, and are always excited to bring new people on board as actors, producers, directors, costume helpers, you name it. No experience is necessary, but a hearty dose of enthusiasm is mandatory!
That said, the folks below are the official legal representatives of this endeavor.

Gina Caroline Gargone
Gina Caroline Gargone has a BA in Theater from Connecticut College that she never felt inclined to do much with until the summer of 2012 when she fell in with the outlandish, motley, bawdy crowd of ruffians who call themselves Teatro Serpiente. Her debut role with the company was Rosalind in Teatro’s outdoor production of As You Like It. Since then she has continued to act, produce, direct, construct, and (her favorite pastime) dream up crazy schemes with her Teatro companions involving complex machinations to take over the world with the persuasive power of live theater, extreme silliness, and a well placed ice cold beer.
