Main Street Players Presents:

Salida by Nicholas Quintana,

Directed by Brandon Urrutia

At the center of Salida is Julio, a young Cuban American college student who finds himself caught between honoring his family's expectations and embracing his own truth. What begins as a tense Christmas Eve domino game unfolds into a moving, funny, and deeply human story about identity, family, and belonging.

Years later, Julio returns home reopening old wounds while rediscovering the Cuban heritage he once tried to leave behind. Filled with humor, heartfelt moments, family conflict, and yes—a helping of lechón—Salida explores the traditions that shape us, the courage it takes to live authentically, and the enduring bonds that connect generations.

Featuring:

• Alejandro Arreola as Julio

• Daniel Nieves as Martin

• Nicholas Valdes as Manny

• Douglas Gonzalez as Oswaldo

Whether you've experienced these conversations around your own family table or are discovering this story for the first time, Salida offers an unforgettable evening of theatre that celebrates the complexity of family, culture, and love.

We hope you'll join us for this powerful production and support local artists bringing new voices to the stage.
