🎬 THE FOUR ONE-ACTS
“Busted Open”
By Damian Arteaga
Gabriella returns to her family's piñata store after a year away at college. After changing her major to Chicano Studies, she finds herself facing pushback from her older-generation father.
“All The Things She Never Said”
By Sophie Goldstein
Set in present-day Los Angeles, sisters Lupita and Mari clean out the home of their recently deceased mother, Monse.
As they sort through boxes, they discover that their mother was part of the Madrigal 10, a group of Latina women who sued the LA County Medical Center in 1978 for forced sterilization.
“Reverencia”
By Kevin Velasquez
Set in a traveling circus in post-war Spain, Reverencia is a poetic drama about love, forgiveness, faith, and the healing power of joy.
Pepito has devoted his life to bringing laughter to people whose lives have been scarred by war. He discovers that his greatest performance may not be the one he gave before an audience, but the final act of forgiveness that could transform an entire family.
