Somewhere in America, an army of pre-teen competitive dancers plots to take over the world. And if their new routine is good enough, they’ll claw their way to the top at Nationals in Tampa Bay. A play about ambition, growing up, and how to find our souls in the heat of it all.

In a magic journey through time, Archbishop Oscar A. Romero, the Catholic priest of El Salvador who sacrificed his life for the liberation of the poor, is called upon by the heavens for sainthood. Romero struggles to accept the call to sainthood while the people continue to suffer. Through music, projection, stilting, and papier-mâché puppetry, we bear witness to Romero’s transformation to sainthood and his social justice legacy alongside the poor.
