Crushed at the Crossing or the Tyranny of Freedom - Acting Edition Joseph F Delgado

A one-act drama about immigrants and shattered American dreams. An east African taxi cab driver in 2018 in an American city takes a passenger, a Puerto Rican Republican, to a secluded location to clarify points the passenger raised in a complaint he lodged against the driver with the taxi company. During their exchange they find commonalities among them, but not enough to prevent the unfortunate outcome of the meeting. "Illuminating and topical... Reminds me of how far we have fallen from the idea of America." --Jon Tuttle, Pulitzer Prize winning playwright, author of DRIFT and THE HAMMERSTONE.
