Bring it Home 2019. Adaptations Dance Theater (ADT) presents Bring it Home annually to celebrate the professional artistry created from and thriving within Maui’s dance community.

Tortilla Curtain

Maui

August 01 – August 04, 2019:
Tortilla Curtain. Adapted from T.C. Boyle’s bestselling novel, this is a visceral, thought-provoking drama about peoples’ preconceived notions of those not like oneself. It is a portrait, sometimes dark, sometimes comical, about achieving social-economic upward mobility and the American Dream and explores the universal yearning to connect with and belong to a community. Stage adaption by Matt Spangler; directed and produced by Vinnie Linares/Oh Boy Productions. http://mauiarts.org/calendar
