Phoenix College presents 14 by José Casas, which will stream November 12-22, 2020


The Department of Fine & Performing Arts is proud to announce the first digitally streamed production of 14 by José Casas

14 was inspired by the true-life event in May 2001 in which a smuggler abandoned 30 Mexicans crossing the desert near Yuma, AZ, resulting in 14 deaths due to dehydration. The play is an ethnographic exploration of immigration in the United States, in particular, coming from the perspectives of people living on the Arizona (U.S.) border with Mexico. It is a fictionalized series of monologues based on playwright interviews and public accounts of Arizonans and Mexicans and their different attitudes toward the contemporary issues of not only immigration but also race and public policy.

The production will be streamed on the Vimeo streaming platform at the link https://vimeo.com/468414003 using the password PC14. 

This production is available to view free of charge. There are some mature themes and language. Please feel free to contact us at the theatre box office voicemail (602) 285-7300 with any questions and we will return your call as soon as possible.
