Manny Igrejas shared this play with us at a reading several months ago and now it is growing up and moving on to The Midtown International Theatre Festival, where it is getting three performances this week.
Here's how Manny describes what's going on in Margarita and Max:
Margarita is having a rough time. She’s unemployed, broke and newly unattached. She’s on her way to catch a bus to New York City to interview for a menial job she probably won’t get. She could use a miracle. A strong spring breeze blows one of those ubiquitous black plastic bags into her path…and into her life. This is no ordinary bag and this is no ordinary day.
