From East, Like the Sun

THEATRE PERFORMANCE:

How can we break the cycle that compels immigrants and their children to leave homes and families in search of security? From East, Like the Sun follows two generations in two families (and one 19th century ghost) searching for the mother lode - whether it’s gold, or a stable way of life.

Written by Karen Li, Jalice Ortiz-Corral directs. Originally developed as part of the Sisters Freehold Horticulture Program, Jalice and Karen worked alongside an assigned dramaturg to develop the work fro one year, culminating in a staged reading. The full production premiered at Strand Theater in Baltimore on January 9, 2026.
