Actors rehearse "Mas Americanos."

An upcoming theatrical reading in Las Vegas combines music and activism – specifically immigration issues.

It’s called “Más Americanos,” and it will take place September 9 and 10 at the Winchester Cultural Center.

In the musical, aliens come down to Earth and offer Americans renewable energy and medicine in exchange for 11 million undocumented immigrants.

 

Arlene Rivera, co-author of "Más Americanos"; Anna Allred, director
