Lucy goes to college. Lucy brings mace. No need for Lucy to actually use it, right? But something happened that wasn’t supposed to happen. Or did it? Oh well, Lucy must be having that quintessential college experience: drinking, boys, and being completely decimated by the people she trusts.

Synopsis:

​

High school senior, Johnny Montalban, is a part of the exuberant world of street musicians in San Francisco. As Johnny sets a plan in motion to drop out of school to pursue a music career, his mother, Carmelita, only has dreams of him graduating and keeping a roof over their heads in their ever-changing SOMA neighborhood. When faced with losing their home due to rent increases and decreased wages from scheming boss, a history assignment based on the true story about how a group of Filipino Americans began the biggest agricultural labor strike in the United States inspires him to fight for the wages owed his mother and the apartment they call home. Through the help of a caring teacher, his love of music, and the strength found in the Filipino American Community, Johnny finds the strength to not only take action in saving his mom’s job, but he also finds the fire to not be another statistical drop-out.

Synopsis from DPS: This is a fresh and heartfelt play about love, time and the infinite directions in which two lives can travel. Hope and Charles are a pair of lonely twenty-somethings about to end a supremely uninteresting first date. But just as they say good night, the myriad possibilities of their futures and a life shared together come rushing to meet them. From their first kiss to their first child, from a horrible tragedy to a second chance, each moment moves with breath-taking speed. A love story told with theatrical flair, AN INFINITE ACHE is as dazzling as it is insightful.

Must-Watch: WHEN WE RISE

Krystle had a chance to work on WHEN WE RISE last April and cannot describe how powerful that experience was. Being surrounded by people who lived through this incredible LGBTQ movement and hearing their stories was an emotional reminder of the necessity of love and humanity and the importance of intersectionality. They risked everything for equality and acceptance. It's now up to us to make sure it wasn't for nothing.

​

This journey of hope and struggle is absolutely relevant to our current conditions. Let this important era of US history serve as a reminder for us to relentlessly resist and not repeat any civil rights injustices.

​

Fight for love. Celebrate love.
