Xenia and Luz are traveling with their mother to God's Gate. On the other side is the promise of safety and a life free from hunger and suffering, but when the siblings are separated from their mother, it becomes clear that the gods may not be quite ready to share the riches that lie beyond. This myth asks us to consider why we've allowed our gods to become so powerful and what we can do to stop them.

This staged reading is the second installation in our saturday series. Royalties from the performance will be donated to RAICES and the Davis Phoenix Coalition.

The performance will run approximately 90 minutes and be performed in English with ASL interpretation.

Content information: The play is recommended for audiences ages ten and older. The text includes indirect references to children being harmed.
