Synopsis

This is the story of Ama, a Cuban-American woman from Hialeah, Florida hellbent on having a child despite many miscarriages and bad luck. It's no wonder she feels an affinity towards Oyá, a barren African Orisha. Blending Santería, African fables, and Regguetón, this bilingual play examines motherhood and with it, maternal ambivalence, infertility, and class.
