Back to You at Ground Floor Theatre

The REGIONAL PREMIERE of Chris Rivera’s riveting play about navigating queer relationships in modern culture, told from a Latiné perspective. This play will be performed by the original developers from New York City. Tickets are on sale now!

Diego and Mateo, two Mexican-American teens have been lifelong friends in their small Texas Valley town. As they grow into young men, their bond deepens into something more than just friendship. Forced to grapple with their fear, shame, homophobia, and pressures of machismo culture, the pair grow up, grow closer, grow apart, and come back together again through the next fifteen years.

Back to You was named by theatre blog A Work Unfinishing as one of the best new works of 2022.  It is now in development for a feature film.

This project is financed in part by the City of Austin Elevate grant.
