Based on the real-life events of Operación Pedro Pan, a young boy is sent to the U.S. to escape the growing dangers of post-revolutionary Cuba. To survive, Pedro must learn a new language and a new culture – while hoping to someday be reunited with his parents. With a score featuring the percussive rhythms of Havana to ’60s New York soul, PEDRO PAN examines what it means to be a displaced immigrant in America.

HELPING PEDRO PAN We’re so pumped that we have the chance to have a 5-show run of PEDRO PAN in an Off-Broadway theatre, and that we’ve been putting together an amazing team of our favorite artists (who also happen to be pretty cool people), but putting up a musical at NYMF is not cheap, and will cost us about $50,000 when all is said and done. These are some of the things that add up to those figures:
NYMF participation fee Our talented Actors and Stage Managers Our amazing Production Staff- Directors, Designers, Board Operators, Our killer Crew, Casting Director, and Costume Designer Rehearsal Space Our wonderful Musicians Set Design, Materials, and Construction Some gorgeous 1960s costumes Marketing and ad space Lots of coffee during script and music rewrites ;)
