“
An exciting play that uses video game tropes to tell a story about living up to the expectations of one's ancestors. ”

“
Chicana Legend is full of fantasy, fun, and feels. It welcomes you home into the inner life of a Legend in the making, and sends you off full of food for thought: what part do I play in my story, or in the story of others, what am I mything? Alexis Elisa Macedo delights and devastates in this essential and resonant story, and her blending of video games and electric story telling have me coming back for another play through. ”

To have the opportunity to see this play onstage is something I will never take for granted. Heart-wrenching, invigorating, and eye opening.
A story that needs to be told. ”
