72 Miles To Go... Tickets

72 Miles To Go... is a powerful drama from playwright Hilary Bettis that follows the Alonso family across nearly a decade as immigration policy and family separation shape daily life. The title nods to the distance between Nogales, Mexico and Tucson, Arizona, anchoring a story of memory, resilience, and community. The play debuted Off-Broadway at Roundabout Theatre Company’s Laura Pels Theatre in 2020, with a development arc that began in Alley All New Festival (2019) and later productions in Houston. This page provides an overview of the performer and writer behind the work, along with the show’s touring updates and ways to engage with the artist.

72 Miles To Go... has earned recognition including the Edgerton Foundation New Play Award (2020) and a National Endowment for the Arts Grant (2020). It was a finalist for the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize (2019) and is tied to the Writers Guild of America Award win in 2019 for The Americans. The 2025 tour brings this intimate, timely story to Houston’s Neuhaus Theatre (Alley Theatre) in the fall, running through November 14, 2025.
