Basilica follows the story of the Garza family from San Juan, Texas. They are a nice working class family. And like every church going family, they strive to be the best they can be. But when Gilbert Gonzalez returns as the new Pastor for the Basilica, everyone will be confronted with the indiscretions of their past and true redemption will escape all but one. Directed by Helen Hayes Award winner, Michael Ray Escamilla, the cast of Basilica includes Mando Alvarado, Gabriel Martinez, DeAnna Daniel Garza, Marcos Martinez, Kaylah Killian, Jaime Garza and Gaby Jones.

This play is brilliant. A must see. They need more support from the Valley and an audience. Check their website. It is playing 6 more times from Thursday the 26th thru Sunday the 29th.

This play really hits home. You must go see this play before you lose the opportunity. There are only a few shows left, so do not procrastinate.
