Based on two poetry texts, The Beauty of Ghosts and The Sahara of I, by Luis H. Francia, Ghosts in the Desert explores a complex range of personal and communal experiences. Featuring the poet/playwright himself, theater artist and activist Claro de los Reyes, dancer/choreographer Paz Tanjuaquio, this multigenre event highlights the too often overlooked Filipinx centuries-long presence in conventional American narratives. Ghosts is a celebration of an indomitable spirit that continues to flourish in the face of many-layered adversity.
