ExPats Theatre: Coming to America: An Immigrant Cabaret
ExPats Theatre brings its production “Coming to America: An Immigrant Cabaret” to the Atlas Performing Arts Center from September 30 through October 18, 2026. The show follows four immigrants from Germany, India, Peru, and Senegal as they take on the “obstacle race” of building a life in the United States, confronting systemic barriers and cultural contradictions along the way. Through music, personal storytelling, and sharp comedic satire, the performers illuminate the complexities of integration while celebrating the variety of immigrant experience and reflecting on American culture’s shifting relationship with the wider world.
The production is designed for adult audiences and includes a mix of humor, wit, and pointed social commentary. Audiences can expect a 90-minute cabaret-style evening that tackles serious themes with a light and entertaining touch.
