WET: A DACAMENTED JOURNEY is the story of what it means to be an American in every sense of the word except for one: on paper. It chronicles the story of Anner Cividanis’s Journey of living his whole life in the United States as an undocumented American. The play captures the desperation that DREAMers feel when considering the very limited options of adjustment of status, by being forced to navigate through a broken U.S. Immigration System. The play examines the mental, emotional, and psychological hardship one man has to endure in order to secure his livelihood in the only home he has known: Los Angeles.
