Open Your Heart: Immigrant Stories and Music from Boston and Beyond is an inter-generational show about seven immigrants who came to the U.S., landed in East Boston, and ultimately became community leaders who contribute to the vibrancy of their community. Produced by Hoopla Productions, in collaboration with the youth nonprofit, ZUMIX,


Youth actors will be joined by ZUMIX musicians and professional actors, Ines de la Cruz, Jaime José Hernandez, and Luz Lopez. Narrating the performance of Open Your Heart is Jenn DeLeon, award-winning writer and young adult author of Borderless, a forthcoming book about teens on the U.S./Mexico border.

Open Your Heart is free and open to the public. Following the performance there will be a dance party with Eli Pabon!


This program is supported in part by grants from The Boston Foundation’s Live Action Grant (LAB), the Mayor’s Office of Arts and Culture, the Massachusetts Cultural Council, an anonymous grant from the Donor Advised Fund from the Mill River Foundation Fund, and Eastern Bank Foundation.
