“Don’t get me wrong, we’re not trying to teach you what it’s like to be an immigrant. APTP has always told stories without beating (you) over your head ‘how to feel, what to think, what to believe’ and sometimes those stories happen to be at a dining table, or while making a sweet Filipino treat in the kitchen. The experiences and the stories themselves, are there to transform you.” - Miguel Angel Rodriguez, Albany Park Theater Project co-executive director, talking about his hopes for what audiences take away from PORT OF ENTRY.
