Mojada: Matinee
Written By Luis Alfaro
Guest Director Carmen Aguirre
Medea and Jason have escaped the worst. After a harrowing journey across the Mexican–American border, the couple has finally made it safely to the United States, where they can work toward
a betterlife for their family. While Jason is convinced the future looks bright, Medea fears a darker fate as they face the challenges of living without documentation. Blending Euripides' classic
play
Medeawith Mexican folklore, playwright Luis Alfaro examines the tragedy behind America's immigration system and the destiny of one family caught in its grip.
