About LUCIÉRNAGAS

When Mal’s grandmother dies, she inherits a mysterious cabin in the woods. Reunited with her estranged mother Silvia, they parse through possessions, ghosts, and long held family secrets, over a weekend the two of them won’t soon forget. Luciérnagas is a play about shadows: our own, and those of our family. It is a play about heritage, forgiveness, and legacy that passes between women in a diaspora.
