As part of its new play development activities, Mosaic Theater is working with playwrights Brian Quijada and Nygel D. Robinson to workshop and refine their new play in development, Mexodus. This work is part of Mosaic's new works incubator, the Catalyst Series.
Preview of their original song "King Cotton."
Inspired by the thousands of enslaved people in the United States who sought freedom in Mexico, rather than looking north, Mexodus uses live looping and hip hop to explore an under-told chapter of the Underground Railroad and celebrate Black and brown bodies standing together against oppression.
Readings will occur Dec. 10 and 11. Be on the ground floor of new work-purchase a ticket to join us at mosaictheater.org/mexodus.
