TOUCH THE MOON by Arianna Rose. Directed by Ricky J. Martinez. “Miranda is a high school student leaving for Spring Break on an unnamed island. That is the last time she's ever seen alive. Through a series of short vignettes that connect past and present, we meet Miranda, her mother Becca, her best friend Emily, Stefan, and his father Dirk. A play about how humans need to know, and sometimes need to tell, TOUCH THE MOON draws a line between truth and lies and how they intersect. At its heart it is a story of motherly love and determination in the face of the unthinkable.” When: Thurs, April 7th @ 7:30 PM Where: Sandrell Rivers Theater 6103 NW 7th Ave Miami, FL, 33127 Tickets: $5 tickets.ftfshows.com Due to limited availability, please request in the ticket comment section if an assisted listening device is needed and quantity.For more information contact the Box Office at (305) 284-8872 or boxoffice@ftfshows.com Tickets Sales are Final.

This upsets him so much that he decides to prevent that move. What he doesn't know is that the new neighbor is Mrs. Love, a character completely opposite to him, which makes everything worse.

Así, el Sr. Odio emprende un plan para atacar a su nueva vecina e impedir que se instale en ese apartamento.
