Wonderful reviews for Confessions of a Mexpatriate: Charming and delightfully funny . . . . this 75-minute production feels more like 25 minutes. . . . Director Ken Webster sculpts each moment with the precision of a surgeon. . . . Mical Trejo shares his naturally warm and engaging persona to create an interesting, imperfect and generous character . . . Plays like this tend to live long lives and I predict that [Raul] Garza will prove to be one of the more important playwrights of our time.Video trailer!
