New York Premiere of Tanya Saracho’s Mala Hierba Opens Off-Broadway

Mala Hierba celebrates its off-Broadway opening on July 28. The New York premiere stars Marta Milans, Roberta Colindrez, Sandra Marquez and Ana Nogueira. Jerry Ruiz directs the production at the McGinn/Cazale Theatre.

Written by Tanya Saracho, the play follows Liliana (Milans), a seemingly impeccable trophy wife of a border magnate living in Texas. But beneath her polished exterior lies a fierce determination to survive at any cost. When her true desires break the surface, she is forced to decide between obligation and the price of freedom.

Mala Hierba will run through August 10 as part of Second Stage’s twelfth annual Uptown Series.
