A teenager and her estranged mother—an undocumented Mexican on the verge of deportation—embark on a road trip across the United States to mend their frayed relationship. Combined with the musical talent of Erin McKeown, Pulitzer Prize winning playwright Quiara Alegría Hudes artfully crafts a story of the barriers and the bonds of family, while also addressing the complexities of immigration in today’s America.
“This is a fresh take on the American road story, filled with people and ideas we rarely get to see onstage… It offers two seriously rich roles for women, each with important things worth singing about… Miss You Like Hellis a powerful example of what musicals do best: explore the unprotected border where individual needs and social issues intermix.” —Jesse Green, New York Times
"A timely political edge, an ethnically diverse cast, and a score by a singer-songwriter who knows how to rock." —Variety
