Directed by Matt Dickson and featuring the dynamic Mexican-American actor, singer, multi-instrumentalist, composer, and intersectional feminist Satya Chávez as 'Bee Quijada,' Where Did We Sit on the Bus? is a high-octane tour-de-force theatrical experience that examines what it means to be Latiné in America.
During a third-grade lesson on the Civil Rights movement and Rosa Parks, a Latina child raises her hand to ask, "Where did we sit on the bus?" Her teacher can't answer the question. Infused with Latin rhythms, hip-hop, and live-looping, this solo exploration follows that kid into adulthood, as she navigates growing up in an immigrant family, her identity as a first-generation American, and what the world might look like for her children.
