Border Stories carries the spectator beyond the real of lived lives into the surreal of watching a single actor transmute into male and female, young and old, queer and questioning with an inner eye looking outward to show the truth.

Dr. Lynne Greeley, Theatre Historian

Gregory Ramos' account of queer life on the Southern Border is a modern story, and a story that helps to illuminate the late twentieth century for us. By bringing together both queer bodies and the border he has created a piece that speaks about universalities but also about particularities.

Dr. Glen Elder, Geographer

Gregory Ramos has crafted a solo performance that builds character and context toward a quiet but deeply touching conclusion. He raises your consciousness about performance and meaning-making.
