The show asks what role artists and popular culture play in democracy, whether we can make a difference, and whether we can find joy in resistance. It runs approximately 90 minutes with no intermission and marks Year 2 of the ensemble's three-year Bronx residency.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/new-york/events/do-not-turn-off-my-telenovela-116605/", "official_url": "https://pregonesprtt.org/do-not-turn-off-my-telenovela-2026-27/", "image": "https://noky.io/images/b5cc442772b5a78eedf5f50e7ac354a087e04e43e30386b482be39cb7e2d0774-1200.webp", "dates": [{"start": "2026-11-20T00:00:00-05:00", "end": "2026-11-21T00:00:00-05:00", "place": "Pregones Theater", "address": "Walton Avenue 575, 10451 Bronx", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "En Parábola/Conversations on Tragedy", "start": "2026-11-05T00:00:00-05:00", "end": "2026-12-20T00:00:00-05:00", "place": "Abrons Arts Center", "address": "Grand Street 466, New York", "price": "Free", "price_from": "0.00", "price_to": "0.00", "category": "exhibitions-museums", "tags": ["art/media-art/film"], "description": "En Parábola/Conversations on Tragedy is a work spanning performance, film installation, and an exhibition that reassembles the Greek myth of Antigone.
