SANCTUARY CITY
Two teenagers who were brought to America as children become one another’s sanctuaries from the harsh circumstances of post-911 Newark, NJ. When G becomes naturalized, she and B hatch a plan to marry so that he may legally remain in the country and pursue the future he imagines for his life. But as time hurtles on and complications mount, the young friends find that this promise challenges and fractures the closest relationship either has ever had.
What are they willing to risk for a future together in the only country they’ve known? They navigate the complexities of adolescence through their tender, joyful, and spirited connection — all while living the realities of being undocumented immigrants. Poignant, timely, and highly theatrical, SANCTUARY CITY illuminates the triumphs, challenges, and deep personal resilience of young DREAMers as they fight to establish a place for themselves and each other, and for the right to fully join the world in which they live.
