America is a mosaic of arrival stories, and to celebrate its 250th anniversary, we are bringing four of them to the stage. This musical cabaret follows the protagonists from diverse global backgrounds (Germany, India, Peru, and Senegal) as they navigate the “obstacle race” of integration—confronting the systemic complexities and cultural contradictions of their new home. Through song and storytelling and with plenty of humor, wit, and satire, we celebrate, dramatize and humorize these unique chronicles while reflecting the breadth of U.S. culture and its ever-changing relationships to the world.
