I was today years old when I found out Jeff Buckley’s mother is 1st-gen Panamanian.

I somehow knew he was an hermano from another madre.

Watch IT’S NEVER OVER on HBOMax … it’s a beautiful documentary.

With the world burning with hate, attending and seeing José Rivera’s new play YOUR NAME MEANS DREAM was the balm I needed tonight. Gratitude #Hartford #Theatreworks #Latinx #NewPlay @megan-m-rivas.bsky.social

Spent a much needed break to Califas, including a visit to El Teatro Campesino to attend Luis Valdez’s newest play ADIOS MAMÁ CARLÓTTA.

It was a return to my origins - and spending time with the Valdez family, my h.s. and college buds, and many others truly brought me joy again.

David Lynch showed me that a director must always insist on having ‘final cut’. To never compromise on your art; never let others sow doubt in your ideas; to trust your heart; and to make things that are personal and true. ❤️‍🔥
