Winner of the 2014 NYMF Developmental Reading Series, this Latin infused American musical is inspired by the true story of a Princeton Undergrad who was an undocumented child immigrant from the Dominican Republic. When Manuel gets a scholarship to study at Oxford, he's faced with the realization that he can't leave the USA. He takes on The Statue ofLiberty in the fight of a lifetime; the high-stakes boxing match that is immigration today. IsManuel worthy? No one is spared in this political comedy that pulls no punches about immigration reform and the American Dream. Scroll down for a peek at the cast in rehearsal!
