L.A. Malong Malong

Who would you climb a tower for? Might be good to know that answer. Zelle knows enough to know that she doesn't feel at home in her own skin and she's the one stuck in the tower! Join Zelle, Princely Butch and a host of other characters in Alison M. De La Cruz's new solo show L.A. Malong Malong. This re-imagined, interactive fairy tale takes part of its name from a Southern Philippines folkdance where the malong transforms into over 30 objects. Zelle knows there's more to the story. Come help her explore the question.
