CRAYON SUN

by Tlaloc Rivas

CRAYON SUN is an elegy inspired by the events of Uvalde, TX. The play follows two children, Valoria and Mando, whose playful innocence is shattered by the harsh realities of the world. As they grapple with the question, "Why is this happening?" their story draws us into a poignant, emotional journey that challenges both heart and mind.
