In this powerful coming-of-age story, two teens forge a deep bond amid the complexities of immigration, identity, belonging and love in Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright, Martyna Majok’s play "Sanctuary City."
Two teenagers find solace in each other while navigating the harsh realities of living in Newark, NJ, in 2001. As their bond deepens, they grapple with the uncertainty of their futures and what they are willing to risk for each other in the only country they've known as home. Majok's poignant storytelling illuminates the sacrifices of DREAMers, lovers, and lifelong friends, weaving fractured time and memories in a play that transcends borders and genres.
By Martyna Majok
