‘Undocumented’ Examines the Tragic Impact of America’s Immigration Crisis

January 2, 2019

California State University, Dominguez Hills’ (CSUDH) production of playwright Elaine Romero’s “Undocumented” examines the tragic impact of America’s current immigration crisis with an immersive, multimedia portrayal of the many facets of the story. The show opens on January 25 at 8 p.m., and will run weekends through Feb. 4 in the CSUDH Edison Theatre.

Where: University Edison Theatre.
Tickets: $18 for general admission, and $13 for students and senior citizens. Click here for tickets. The play is intended for a mature audience.

Produced by CSUDH’s Department of Theatre and Dance, and directed by Theatre Arts faculty member Bill DeLuca, “Undocumented” tells the story of Amalia Portilla, a school principal who faces political consequences when her superintendent demands that she turn over the name of an undocumented worker she has protected. Portilla stands to lose not only her LatinX Studies Program, but her job as well.

“The play reflects the American schizophrenia over immigration that not only veers between acceptance and exclusion, but also divides and redefines our country,” said DeLuca.

The play is intended for a mature audience. Tickets are $18 for general admission, and $13 for students and senior citizens. Group rates are available. For more information or to purchase tickets online visit www.csudh.edu/theatre/tickets. For other payment options, call the box office at (310) 243-3589.

Parking is located near the CSUDH University Theatre Complex in Lots 3 or 6. Daily visitor parking permits are $8 and can be purchased with cash, Visa, MasterCard, or debit cards at kiosk machines located in each lot. Click here for a campus map.
