"If this is one of those robocalls, please delete my number,” orders Reinalda Paraíso, a painter whose work lies at the heart of C. Quintana’s new play, The 126-Year-Old Artist. On the other end of the line is Yésica Ortega, a young, queer, Latine curator who “discovers” Reinalda's work at a flea market and becomes obsessively determined to make a name for them both. However, as the women are thrust into the spotlight, this audaciously colorful and engrossing new commission for the Audible Emerging Playwright Fund proves the path to success isn’t always straight and that the truth isn’t always black and white.

Portions of this audiobook contain mature language. Listener discretion is advised.

Playwright C. Quintana was awarded a commission through the Audible Emerging Playwrights Fund, an initiative dedicated to developing innovative original plays driven by language and voice. As an Audible-commissioned playwright, she received funding and creative support to develop The 126 Year Old Artist.

Wow. There aren’t enough words to describe how poignant, captivating, and powerful this reading is. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time! CQ’s bold and powerful writing coupled with the nuanced and graceful performances left me absolutely speechless and wanting so much more. The 126 Year Old Artist is a must-listen.

Absolutely extraordinary!

the story was great and made me wish I could ask some of the characters, "Wait, what about this? What about that?" But the imagination is always the realm of the artist. CQ is seen in glimpses within her characters, particularly Jessica and Bai.

I met CQ on a flight a few weeks ago. So glad I met you. I will be getting the word out about CQ and wonderful works that are out there waiting to be discovered and appreciated.

CQ shines through her characters

C. Quintana has written a spunky relevant audio play that has a pleasurable hint of an old school Nancy Drew mystery, one brought waaay up-to-date and brimming with color! The appealing and talented Julissa Calderon is a standout in the leading role. This piece is both super fun and thought-provoking. Worth it!

The story is full of mystery and heart, and the sound design beautifully transports you through each scene. Highly recommend anyone curious about Audible plays to start with this one!

This play has interesting characters, a story which keeps you listening, good actors and excellent production values. I wasn’t sure if a play without a visual component would keep me engaged, but this one absolutely did! Felicitaciones a CQ!
