you covered.

Locals can support San Antonio and its history by attending this virtual production from the first city-owned, city-built theater in the U.S.

The latest entry in the Public Theater’s season of one-person shows, Empanada tells the story of a Mexican American “Lesbiana en probaditas” and the challenges she faces “when family, religion, cultura and her inner truth come together.”

$25-$35, 7:30 p.m. Thursdays-Saturdays, 2 p.m. Sundays through March 14, thepublicsa.org.
