Book, Music and Lyrics by Brian QuijadaDirected by Rebecca MartinezA World Premiere Co-production with Syracuse StageInspired by the real-life journey of the writers mother from El Salvador to the U.S. and by L. Frank Baums "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" "Somewhere Over the Border" embraces the factual and the fantastical in its depiction of one young girls pursuit of the American dream. As Reina travels north to the Mexican border, she gathers friends, faces down dangers, and holds tight to the memory of the little boy she left behind. Set in the 1970s and propelled by cumbia, Mexican mariachi boleros, American rock and hip hop, this new musical is both fable and family history and a testament to the determination born of love.
