New Land Theatricals and its production, América Viva, invite audiences on a journey across places and the people encountered along the way. It’s about ships crossing oceans, travelers walking across new lands, and hearts opening to the unknown. Every rhythm, every movement, and every story reminds us that to live is to discover, to keep moving, to keep learning, to keep connecting.

This Christmas, we will bring joy to many children. And when we give them their bicycles, we will not just be giving them toys, but vessels of discovery. Because a bicycle, in the imagination of a child, is much more than a gift. It is a ship sailing through their neighborhood, a horse galloping through dreams, a companion on the road to new horizons. It gives them freedom, the power to go farther, to explore, to see beyond what they already know. And that is what América Viva is all about: movement, curiosity, courage, and connection.

So when each child rides away in December, may their journey be filled with wonder, may they ride toward kindness, toward friendship, and toward the beautiful realization that the world is vast, alive, and waiting to be discovered.
