Theatre For Young Audiences 
Spring Semester 2010 
Presents 

Tomás and the Library Lady 
Based on the book by Pat Mora 
Script by José Cruz González 
Directed by Professor Kim V. Morin 

In the story by Pat Mora, Tomás is the son of migrant workers; every year he and his family follow 
the crops across the country from Texas to Iowa. Nervous about speaking English in front of his 
teacher, Tomás is afraid to go to school, but when he meets the "library lady," a whole new world 
opens up for him. 
This production, filled with puppets that emerge from suitcases and drawings that depict a child's 
view of farming in the Valley, is based on the true story of Mexican-American educator, Tomás 
Rivera, a child of migrant workers who went on to become the first minority Chancellor in the 
University of California system. This inspirational play suggests what libraries--and education--can 
make possible for a young child with big dreams.
