As Juan José feverishly studies for his citizenship exam, his obsession to pass takes him on a fantastical odyssey through U.S. history guided by a handful of unsung citizens who made courageous choices in some of the country’s toughest times. American Night: The Ballad of Juan José is a provocative, irreverent, and hilarious mix of past and present, stereotype and truth.
American Night: The Ballad of Juan José is presented by special arrangement with SAMUEL FRENCH, INC.
Audience notifications: strobe lighting effects, simulated gunfire, mature themes/adult content, and strong language are used in this production.
