Under a Baseball Sky

Show Description:

From José Cruz González, author of American Mariachi, comes a new play about baseball’s deep roots in the Mexican American community. When troublemaker Teo is put to work cleaning up a vacant lot belonging to his elderly neighbor, this unlikely pair forms a bond forged in history and America’s favorite pastime. Inspired by a neighborhood in California, this new piece of vibrant theater celebrates communities and individuals coming together to find hope, healing, love, and the occasional home run. José Cruz González’s Under a Baseball Sky was commissioned by the Old Globe and underwritten by The Blanche and Irving Laurie Foundation.
