Ana García dreams of flying away. But when her family’s East Los Angeles garment business receives a make-or-break order for 200 dresses, Ana finds herself juggling her own ambitions, her mother Carmen’s expectations and a community of women all trying to make it work against the odds. Based on the play by Josefina López that inspired the iconic hit HBO film, with music by Grammy Award-winning composer Joy Huerta and directed by Tony Award winner Sergio Trujillo, Real Women Have Curves: The Musical “makes us feel we can all soar!” (WBUR)
