LINKS
At the heart of this tale is the forced assimilation of a Mexican-American child who has been stolen away from her family by anglo missionaries who want to raise her as their own. The play takes place two generations later. “Links” transcends the boundaries of reality with a narrative that forces truth from the lips of its reticent characters and shape-shifts time and space to surprise and delight its audience
