Tomás And The Library Lady
Produced by
Magik Theatre

This is a non-ticketed performance – no tickets are necessary, no reservations can be made. As a courtesy to Miller, we’d appreciate it if you’d fill out the school group attendance form here.

This performance will not be livestreamed.

Based on the inspiring true story of Tomás Rivera and the beloved book by Pat Mora, Tomás and the Library Lady is a celebration of stories, reading, and imagination.

Tomás, a native Texan born in Crystal City and the son of migrant farm workers, meets a kind librarian who introduces him to the transformative power of books. This is the story of author and educator Tomás Rivera, who became the first minority Chancellor in the University of California system. This bilingual play can be enjoyed by both English and Spanish speakers.
