Carmela Full of Wishes

Adapted by Alvaro Saar Rios
Based on the book by Matt de la Peña illustrated by Christian Robinson

Directed by Adam Flores

¡Feliz cumpleaños! It’s Carmela’s birthday, and she’s finally old enough to tag along with her big brother while he runs errands. As they journey through their vibrant neighborhood, past familiar sights like the busy bus stop, the local repair shop, and the panadería, Carmela discovers a single dandelion growing in the pavement outside the Laundromat. But before she can blow its delicate seeds into the wind, her brother reminds her of the importance of making a wish. If only she could find the perfect wish…  
 
This play is a heartfelt celebration of family, dreams, and finding hope in the most unexpected places. Carmela Full of Wishes will inspire audiences of all ages to cherish the small moments that make life extraordinary.

Best enjoyed by ages 5 and up.
