how to make an American son is a brand new play that explores what happens when the American Dream collides with the reality of immigration and family. Honduran-born Mando built a successful cleaning business and he has the means to pay for his son, Orlando's, lavish high school lifestyle. Orlando is happy to enjoy the fruits of his father's labor, but is embarrassed by his accent and his line of work. When Orlando finds himself responsible for the fate of a treasured worker and the future of his father's business, the two must face tough truths about the business, citizenship, their family and, most importantly, how to keep their dreams alive in a society that keeps them struggling to belong.
