Living inside the immigrant experience.
American Dreams is a collection of original monologues about the immigration experience that playwright and Professor Linda Britt was inspired by real-life newspaper articles. She generously gave me carte blanche to cast or cut specific monologues as I saw fit depending on who was available and right for the roles.
During production week, Linda was our very special Talk Back guest with the cast and audience. It was an extremely memorable, timely, and important show that made a profound impact on our cast and audiences.
“It is imperative to choose material that exposes student actors to a variety of experiences and people from around the world. American Dreams does just that. ”
