A musical by Quiara Alegría Hudes and Erin McKeown
A daughter who gets to stay, a mother on the brink of deportation, and the wall that threatens to come between them. An intense, rambunctious, and raw adventure as this female duo befriends a cadre of American originals en route to mom's immigration hearing.
Premiered at La Jolla Playhouse in 2016 and at the Public Theater in 2018.
Watch Daphne Rubin-Vega and Erin McKeown perform a song from the show.
