  3. Tomás and the Library Lady: An Imagine U Production


Toms and The Library Lady, directed by MFA Directing student Ismael Lara, Jr., tells the true story of a nine-year-old Toms Rivera, the son of Mexican migrant workers who move from Texas to Iowa to work in corn fields in the summer of 1945. Toms finds the library, where he bonds with the librarian. Adapted for the stage by Jos Cruz Gonzles from the childrens book of the same title, written by El Paso born and UTEP graduate Pat Mora, Toms takes his education into his own hands and develops a lifetime love of reading and writing.
