In Mexico, an 11 year-old boy and his 8-year old brother are left behind with relatives they barely know when their widowed father goes to the United States to find work. We witness snapshots of their dreams and fears while they take care of each other, imagine their future and navigate a journey well beyond their years. Presented last spring as a staged reading at Goodman’s Latino Festival

Thursday & Friday performances are followed by post-show dialogues.

Running time 75 minutes. No intermission.
