Bread and Butter
a new play by Pratima Agrawal
Aarti Patel is a recently divorced, single mom. Between struggling to pay the bills, taking care of her infant daughter, and constant reminders of her singlehood, she can’t seem to catch a break - or any sleep for that matter. When an opportunity to compete on a reality baking show comes along, she can’t resist trying to make her dream come true.

Silueta
a new musical by Erlina Otiz
POWER STREET THEATRE
Inspired by the life and work of Cuban-American performance artist, Ana Mendieta, SILUETA follows the unlikely friendship of two women who have been ripped by their roots and planted in New York City. Plagued by the ghosts of their past, Xiomara (a Cuban-American refugee) and Ishtar (a Syrian refugee) struggle to find meaning, laughter and what it means to be a family away from home in the wake of growing tensions and rising anti-immigrant sentiment highlighted by the 2016 presidential campaign.
