One Grain of Rice
Long ago, there lived a king who believed that he was wise and fair. But every year he kept nearly all of the people's rice for himself. When famine came, the king refused to share the rice, and the people went hungry.
Then a village girl named Hope devises a clever plan. She does a good deed for the king, and in return he lets her choose her reward. Hope asks for just one grain of rice, doubled every day for thirty days. Through the surprising power of doubling, one grain of rice grows into more than one billion grains of rice - and Hope teaches the king a lesson about what it truly means to be wise and fair.

Dancing Home tells the story of two cousins, Margie, a US-born Mexican-American, and Lupe, a newcomer from Mexico who has come to live with Margie’s family. Their lives are so different that they struggle to connect as friends. When they each discover a love for Mexican folklórico, they find a shared path to the place they call home.
This Spanish-English bilingual play explores themes of immigration, bullying, Latinx heritage, language, identity, self-acceptance, and the power of art.
