"Best New Theater Troup"

Best Of OC 2007

This Santa Ana troupe is unabashedly political, talented and eager to look under rocks most people would prefer untouched, as proven by its inaugural production last year of The Mexican O.C. Culled from interviews with longtime OC residents, the piece was (and is) a triumphant blend of agitprop and studious oral history, an uncompromising examination of some of the more unsavory examples of the prejudice toward migrants that has existed in this county since long before Proposition 187 and amnesty marches. Most recently, the troupe staged 9ine Digits Away From My Dream, another oral-history project about undocumented students in the United States seeking college degrees.
