Dreamer Project: An Undocuplay - Borderlands Tickets

Dreamer Project: An Undocuplay – Borderlands is a powerful verbatim theatre piece created from in-depth interviews with San Jose State University undocumented students during 2017–2018. Presented as part of SJSU's Borderlands initiative, the performance offered intimate, firsthand perspectives on the immigrant experience, education, and community. The project was brought to life on stage at the Hammer Theatre Center in downtown San Jose and delivered through a collaborative, documentary-style approach that respects the voices of its contributors.

Venue information: Hammer Theatre Center, located at 101 Paseo De San Antonio, San José, CA 95113, serves as a welcoming hub for arts and community storytelling. The production ran multiple performances in November 2019, with showtimes typically at 7:30 pm and a Sunday matinee. While the project’s last publicly documented performances were in November 2019, the impact of An Undocuplay – Borderlands continues to resonate in discussions around immigration, education access, and storytelling in California’s theatre scene. A related streaming adaptation emerged in 2021 when Diablo Valley College produced a version of the Undocuplay, extending its reach beyond the stage.
