What did our critic think of CEBOLLAS at DCPA? As the youngest of four siblings, I understand the value of family relationships, especially when catastrophe strikes. It is in these moments that familial ties are strengthened. Whatever experience you traverse with your siblings, it is sure to leave you closer than you were before.

Get a first look at Denver Center for the Performing Arts' Cebollas in an all new trailer. Tere are three sisters forced to take an unexpected road trip from Albuquerque to Denver. Speeding past Santa Fe, Colorado Springs, and Castle Rock, they reflect on family history and muse about the future. They don’t travel for business or for pleasure.

The world premiere of Cebollas is playing at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts. Watch the trailer!
