About the Show
Dec. 1-4, 2022
Adapted by Alvaro Saar Rios from the book by Matt de la Peña, illustrated by Christian Robinson; Directed by Tatyana-Marie Carlo
¡Feliz cumpleaños! It’s Carmela’s birthday, and she’s finally old enough to tag along with her big brother while he runs errands. Join them as they pass by the fenced-off repair shop, the busy bus stop, and Miss Maria’s verdulería. Outside the laundromat, Carmela picks a dandelion and makes several birthday wishes: that she gets a candy machine, a big fancy bed for Mamí like the ones at the hotel where she works, and most importantly, that Papí will be able to come back home soon. When a sudden accident crushes her dandelion before she can make her biggest wish, can her brother help Carmela believe in the power of wishes once again?
RUN TIME: One hour without an intermission.
BEST ENJOYED by age 5 and up.
