About
“Fifty fun facts sobre Olivia, mi madre” is a bilingual stage piece about a teenage boy navigating his mother’s medical crisis while caught between cultures, languages, and identities. Blending humor, memory, and autofiction, the play explores what it means to care for the person who once cared for you—and the silences, losses, and fun facts that shape a life across borders.
