American Triage February 22, 2008

AMERICAN TRIAGE, Fatima is a teenage girl growing up in the Canal district of San Rafael. Ever since a near-death experience following a soccer game accident, her little brother Lalo has been able to see his guardian angel -- who happens to be a statue in the San Rafael church. When their parents are deported in the immigration raids, Fatima and Lalo are left alone. Lalo sends his guardian angel to Mexico to protect his parents as they attempt to cross back into the United States -- but in order to separate from Lalo, the angel must remove her wings and live as a mortal human. There will be festival seating for the performances at Pickleweed Community Center and a simultaneous live translation in Spanish (via headphones).
