Tickets are still available for this one-night benefit reading of Lisa Ramirez's TO THE BONE co-hosted by V (formerly Eve Ensler), and Rosa Clemente, with a special guest appearance from Maria Hinojosa.

Originally commissioned by Working Theater and inspired by actual interviews with immigrant workers in the poultry processing plants of upstate NY, TO THE BONE examines the very nature of equality and justice in contemporary America. The reading will be simultaneously translated into Spanish, and all proceeds will go to benefit Rural and Migrant Ministry at a time when their community has been disproportionately affected by COVID-19.

Working Theater is thrilled to announce our national virtual co-production of American Dreams, written by Leila Buck and Directed by Tamilla Woodard.

Welcome to American Dreams where each night you, the audience, gets to choose who will be your new neighbor. This playful participatory performance takes a page from America's favorite game shows and uses voting, polling, trivia and more to explore what it means to be(come) a citizen. 
 

It''s a Game! It''s a Show! It''s America! 

Join our live online studio audience for this innovative theatrical event. Come ready to laugh a little, sing a little and most importantly, to vote for who will be America's newest citizen. Your invited to Working Theater's exclusive performances of American Dreams, which will feature access to special town hall events, artists talk backs and more running from Oct 20-25th only.
