¡despierta!

This original musical came about in response to Arts for Everybody’s national campaign, inspired by the Federal Theater Project, in which 18 cities and towns were selected to present large-scale participatory arts projects that draw on the sounds, styles, and stories of their communities to answer the prompt “No place like home” all on the same day. Our task was to cultivate a sense of belonging through the intersection of art and health.
