The Americans

The Americans are eating soft serve. The Americans think #SomeLivesMatter. The Americans are Team Orange, Team Pantsuit, or Team Its All Rigged Anyway. The Americans are wondering if they can remove their gel manicures themselves. The Americans are excited about the return of the pumpkin spice latte. The Americans want a spoiler alert. The Americans are coming to Free Street Theater.

Free Street presents this special election-edition of The Americans. Created and conceived by Coya Paz, and directed by Katrina Dion, The Americans is based on interviews with over 200 people in 10 states, and asks: what brings us together? What tears us apart? This 50-minute performance has been reworked to engage the 2016 election. This four person ensemble includes actors Nick Benz, Ashlyn Lozano, Karla Estela Rivera, and Sharaina L. Turnage.
