Pastel Color Ripples (Episode 5: Xavii)
Xavii’s homecoming isn’t exactly what she thought it would be. To be fair, she never thought she would be returning to Ohio in the first place. But life is full of surprises -- is Xavii ready to surprise life back? By replaying revelatory images from her past, ripples reveal a concealed truth, and she must decide if now is the time to bare her soul to the world.

Customer Reviews
A little theatre for your life
A fantastic opportunity to experience theatre in the time of Covid. They premiere brand new work that deserves to be heard!
Promesa Promesota ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Promesa Promesota is a really powerful short play by Gama Valle. I'm particularly impressed with the beauty (and sadness) of Carlos' internal monologue. The language is alluring and poetic without being pretentious.
The direction from Kaitlin Paige Longoria is really strong: the relationship between brother/sister is very clear and I love that she found the playful moments and humor in the heaviness of this short script. It provides important levity.
Jon Mulhearn’s sound design is professional and balanced. I was drawn into the specificity of the distinction between scene and monologue. Special acknowledgment to Andy Evan Cohen’s theme.
Both actors, Fernando Gonzalez & Bertha Leal, give powerful vocal performances, and it is easy to visualize their pain and love for one another.
