Actress writing play on her kidnapping
MEXICO CITY -- Mexican actress Laura Zapata, sister of pop singer Thalia, says she's completing a play based on her kidnapping.
The play is a "type of catharsis" and a way to move forward with her life, Zapata told the newspaper El Universal this week.
Zapata and her sister, writer Ernestina Sodi, were abducted from their car last year after Zapata appeared in a play. The sisters were released weeks later. Zapata has indicated that her family paid a ransom but hasn't disclosed the amount.
The play doesn't have a title yet, and Zapata said she hoped to finish it by Christmas. It isn't clear when it may be put on the stage.
