Ashley, a Puerto Rican girl from Philly, is getting a D in Spanish, and at home everything's lost in translation -- her mother's attention is always elsewhere, and her grandma just sits in the dark and watches Spanish soap operas. With the help of an old soup recipe and some family history, can Ashley create a new language with her grandma?
Content Notes: Adult language
Set: Simple unit set."Filled with Spanish and a sense of mystery. Hudes' play swims in a sea of language. As needs and intentions get lost in translation, [Ashley] discovers that actions can forge new levels of understanding and the value of forging, and maintaining, intergenerational ties."
"If you enter into the glow of the play's concluding moments, before you know it you will understand the place of the sacred in human interchange and respect the place of ritual. All without benefit of priest, rabbi, or shaman."
