Join us for a performed reading of Romero, an award winning play* written and directed by Dr. Xiomara Cornejo, Assistant Professor of Theater in the Performing Arts and Social Justice Program (PASJ). This play explores the life, death, and metaphoric "resurrection" of murdered Archbishop Óscar Romero through music and puppetry and features excerpts of his real-life homilies and sermons. Piano accompaniment by PASJ student, Justin Manns.

*2022 Winner of the National Partners of the American Theater "Outstanding Play" award
