Song for the Disappeared

Institute History

Description

Javi Cantu’s been missing for 48 hours. In another time and place, this wouldn’t be cause for concern, but disappearing on the Texas/Mexico Border in this day and age could turn out to be more than dangerous; it could be a tragedy. The Cantus, an affluent and influential Mexican family in Texas, must set aside their differences and heal their schisms if only long enough to discover who or what has caused the family’s only male son’s disappearance. This play follows El Nogalar as Saracho’s second in her Border Trilogy.
Song for the Disappeared is a commission of the Goodman Theatre.
