Theatre 33’s Summer Festival 2026

In a fictional Latin American country, two hungry children are orphaned by a U.S.-backed coup. Fifteen years later they return, a modern-day Hansel and Gretel, to follow what migas they can in search of their father. Revisiting the scene of the violence they survived, they discover a landscape of secrets and sacrifice they are only beginning to understand. Delivered through compact and electric dialogue, and leavened with compassion and even humor, Crumbs / Migas is a play about the grief and grace we encounter on the way home.

When a new talented competitor appears at an annual youth piano competition, Isla, Benji, Kinsleigh, and Eden question their own competency and ability to keep up with the growing demands of being a prodigy. After Isla gets her period while practicing, she takes it as a sign that she should quit playing piano forever, and attempts to rally the other prodigies to question their own devotion to Bach. "Prodigies" is a play about labor, duty, and living on the excruciating precipice of being a teenager.
