Emerson Stage continues its dedication to Theatre for Young Audiences with a story of immigration in Esperanza Rising playing the Cutler Majestic Theatre November 12-21. Directed by Roxanne Schroeder-Arce, this play follows the journey of a young girl, Esperanza, from her native Mexico to the fields of Southern California.
