Sally Wingert and Joe Minjares lead this multi-generational, multi-racial family in this hilarious new comedy about the pursuit of the American dream, where hardworking parents lavish their children with material "love" and leave them with nothing to work for. In classic, big, comedic fashion, this  the play dissects how parental aspirations can both inspire and derail ambition.

In a production populated by people of all races, Crashing the Party brings the global village to the Mixed Blood stage. Click here to view a fun little video, "Are there any Latinos in Crashing the Party?"
