Blast Off

Inspired by the first Latina astronaut, Dr. Ellen Ochoa, young and passionate Valentina dreams of following in her hero’s footsteps. While Valentina’s classmates cast her off, because she’s a girl who enjoys ballet and her family doesn’t enthusiastically support her, she finds confidence and inspiration in her new (imaginary) best friend, astronaut Ellen Ochoa. Valentina and Ellen navigate the world of big dreams, doubt, and education. They find out how the sciences and the arts work together and never let fear get in the way of learning!
This performance has been specifically crafted with grades K-5 in mind.
