(UP)ROOTED: A PARTIAL HISTORY OF HUMAN MIGRATION is a theatre collage exploring many of the expansive journeys and experiences of migration.
Compelled by force, by dreams, by desperation, by vision, migration laces through the cultures and histories of nearly everybody in the U.S. These histories are thick with contradictions and disparities bewteen welcome and exclusion at the will of the gatekeepers.
Once past the gates, what does it mean to survive and to belong?
Conceived and devised by Andrea del Moral and Olivia Levins Holden with performers: Karen "Muki" Villanueva, rico kleinstein chenyek, Veronica Haro, Jeff Conant & Carol Ann Amour.
