Life’s a trip
After being outed by her flamboyant mother, young Marga, like a Latina Patty Hearst, escapes her New York home for 1976 San Francisco with her first love AKA her ‘Friend from College.” When a survival restaurant job requires her to recreate a treasured family recipe, Marga’s Spanish Stew unites her with her family of origin and her Queer, punk, and avant-garde San Francisco family.
Spanish Stew is a World Premiere in the Walker Theatre.
“Astonishing.” – Armistead Maupin
