Product Description:
Cast 5w is a captivating and humorous play set in a small sewing factory located in East L.A. This engaging narrative follows the lives of five full-figured Mexican-American women as they strive to meet daunting production deadlines to save their struggling factory. Amidst the tension of hiding from the INS (Immigration and Naturalization Service), these women share their stories, discussing their husbands, lovers, children, and dreams for a better future.
The story unfolds through the eyes of Ana, the youngest worker in the factory. Recently graduated from high school, Ana yearns to escape the barrio and pursue her aspirations of becoming a celebrated writer. Despite her need for income, she finds herself disillusioned with the factory environment and the attitudes of her co-workers, who mock her ambitions and feminist ideals. Yet, Ana?s journey of self-discovery leads her to document her experiences in a journal, revealing profound insights about her colleagues and their struggles.
As the summer progresses, Ana develops a deeper understanding and appreciation for the women around her. This transformative experience culminates in an essay that earns her a journalism fellowship, propelling her towards New York City. Cast 5w serves as a microcosm of the Latina immigrant experience, celebrating the strength and resilience of women, the beauty of diverse bodies, and the unbreakable bond forged through shared labor.
