Sabor is rich with meaning about the beautiful complexities of life. This play is about a woman struggling to discover how all facets of who she is fit into how other people in her life view her. It's about families, how we carry the burdens of previous generations--their lives, their toils, their losses, their hopes and dreams and expectations--and how the past inevitably intersects with the present. In the end, it's also about love. Come for the relatability of Clara's messiness, stay for the dancing, be surprised by the magically real beauty. I can't wait to see this in performance!

The title says it all. This play is all about flavor, but not just about the flavor of food (though there are some mouth-watering descriptions of various dishes) but also the flavors of different cultures, ethnicities, and sexual identities and how they mingle together and enrich all of us. I love the use of a single setting that still admits the larger scope of history and memory. There are moments of astonishing bravery that made me gasp even as the relationships between Clara and the people in her life kept me engaged in every scene. A truly wonderful play!
