Station Hope

Deadline for submissions is Monday, January 7.

Cleveland Public Theatre is planning the sixth annual STATION HOPE, a one night event of entertainment and art inspired by the history of St. John’s Church and the Underground Railroad, the repercussions of oppression and contemporary struggles for social justice, on Saturday, May 4, 2019.

How Station Hope Works

Audiences explore St. John’s campus on the corner of W 26th St and Church Ave. With 30+ performances to choose from, attendees will encounter choirs, dance, theatre, intimate solo performance and interactive art – all happening at the same time in multiple indoor and outdoor venues.

Station Hope performances are 10 – 15 minutes in length and presented multiple times throughout the evening. Art installations will range from large to small, depending on the individual needs and space availability.

About the play…

La Gringa is about a young woman’s search for her identity. Maria Elena Garcia goes to visit her family in Puerto Rico during the Christmas holidays and arrives with plans to connect with her homeland. Once in Puerto Rico, she realizes that the majority of the Puerto Ricans on the island consider her an American—a gringa. So if she is a Puerto Rican in the United States and an American in Puerto Rico, where does she belong? Maria wrestles to find belonging in her many homes and comes to learn that her identity is self-defined and found in her heart.
