Featuring the talents of #FilAm actors (and past AAP collaborators): REGGIE LEE as "Allos"/"Carlos Bulosan," with MELODY BUTIU, JASON ROGEL, and REUBEN UY. With sound design by Howard Ho.

ALLOS: THE STORY OF CARLOS BULOSAN follows the journey of the #FilipinoAmerican poet, novelist, union organizer, who fought for the rights of migrant workers. Through his powerful writing and penchant for union organizing, Bulosan pursues both labor justice and the American Dream. From the Philippines to the California farmlands, the play celebrates the voice he finds along the way. Based on AMERICA IS IN THE HEART, #CarlosBulosan's semi-autobiographical book.

The play is suitable for middle grade children and older, and will be presented live on Zoom with a cast of dynamic actors taking on the various personas throughout Bulosan's life.

The stories and experiences of the #FilipinxAmerican community are seldom explored, despite being the largest Asian Pacific American ethnic group in Los Angeles. Presented during Filipinx American History Month, ALLOS: THE STORY OF CARLOS BULOSAN provides an opportunity to learn more about the diverse communities around us, and to use the performing arts as a tool to teach about American history.
