CACO
Actor & Singer
Hola! You can call me Caco. I am an actor and singer based in New York City. Hailing from the San Francisco Bay Area, I grew up loving to imitate my favorite screen characters and also often could be caught singing along to all of Britney Spears' catalogue. My passion for musical theatre sparked in high school, when my first mentor, Jenifer Coté, cast me in my first stage role in the musical Cabaret. I love to sing a variety of repertoire, from musical theatre, to R&B, Rock, Pop, and Soul. In my free time, I work as a Specialist at Apple, and at New Beginnings Performing Arts Studio as their Marketing Director. I am also an alto in NYC's Lavender Light Gospel Choir, performing around the city and nation. Let's connect---feel free to reach out and say hi!

THE PASSION OF REV. YOLANDA: CONCEPT EP RECORDING
Oct. 19, 2021
Role: Little Tony
BROADWAY WORLD:
Alien Love Child Musical will release its newest cast recording The Church of the Alien Love Child Presents: The Passion of Rev. Yolanda on October 19th, 2021, at 8:00pm (EDT).
The release will premiere five songs from the show during a live stream event and online listening party-held on YouTube and Facebook Live-hosted by Nakia (The Voice) and Joshua Pangborn (Sidekick Productions). The EP will be available for digital download on all major platforms the same day.
Featuring a southern rock and pop score, The Passion of Rev. Yolanda tells the real-life story of the author: an Alabama-bred, New York-based performance artist who has evolved from a traditional, if tumultuous, Southern Baptist boyhood into mystical transgender-femme-queerdom.
The Church of the Alien Love Child Presents: The Passion of Rev. Yolanda features music & lyrics by Rev. Yolanda Roger Anthony Mapes, and book & additional lyrics by Justin Anderson Taylor. Philip Carroll produced the EP, and Doreen Younglove joins the cast and serves as assistant music coordinator. Rev. Yolanda is also joined in the cast by Tym Moss, Rupert Spraul, Jae W. Brown, Carlos Kantor, and Emily Mikesell.
Based on the 2018 BRIC Theatre Lab Production directed by Shaun Peknic, The Church of the Alien Love Child presents its annual passion play about its founder, The Passion of Rev. Yolanda. Discover the three names, three lives, three deaths, and three resurrections of Rev. Yolanda, a trans-femme genderqueer interfaith music minister from Muscle Shoals, Alabama. Inspired by Passing Strange, Fun Home, and The Rocky Horror Show, Yolanda, backed by her band and the Alien Love Choir, guides the audience through an immersive, musical church service and play about her journey toward her true self. Bluegrass, gospel, rock, folk, and Yolanda's unique country-kirtan sound take us through Yolanda's odyssey & deliver us to a trans-scendant gender land.
Rev. Yolanda says, "I'm releasing this inspirational EP at this challenging time in world history because I am choosing to RISE higher than ever before. I know in my heart that many people across the globe are also choosing to RISE to co-create together a new human experience on this planet. One that values all life, because all life is ONE and EVERYTHING in life is HOLY."
The Church of the Alien Love Child Presents: The Passion of Rev. Yolanda premiere EP is presented in part by funding provided by City Artists Corps Grants and Lower Manhattan Cultural Council. Special strategic services provided by Aaron Grant Theatrical.
