UPDATE 12/16/2022: We are incredibly disappointed that we have to announce the official cancellation of “Dear Kitty…Querida Anna…” This is not the ending anyone wanted for this show; however, due to illness and our cast and crew’s availability, we had to make this hard decision.We are proud of all of the work of the entire creative team. We also thank the City of San Jose Office of Cultural Affairs and Theatre Bay Area for making this show possible. The run may not have been as long as we all had hoped, but we are proud of the two shows our audiences were able to see.If you bought a ticket and would like a refund, please let us know by December 31st and we will return your money as soon as possible. We are happy to do so. If you do not request a refund, we will consider it a donation to More Más Marami Arts, which will help with expenses and putting on future shows.
