In the sixteen years since her father left, Marta has felt trapped in her family’s double-wide in Texas. She gave up college and stayed home to take care of her siblings and mother. Just as a secret online relationship reignites Marta’s dreams and curiosity about the world outside, her siblings each decide they will do anything it takes to escape their home lives – even if it means leaving Marta behind.

Tickets are Pay What You Can (suggested donation of $5). All proceeds will go back to the Whitewater Dream Fund, which helps to support UW-Whitewater “Dreamers,” who are required to pay out-of-state tuition even though they may have lived in Wisconsin for nearly all of their lives.
