O.K.! 
by Christin Eve Cato

World Premiere
INTAR Theatre, NYC (2025)

"A potently theatrical (and emphatically Latina/e) portrait of the many contingencies inflecting the question of "reproductive choice" in the contemporary US. In O.K.!, a touring group of Latina/e theatremakers confront the shifting local legal landscapes of reproductive health in a post-Dobbs America. Deftly dappled with relevant historical and health information, Christin Eve Cato’s deeply moving and deeply funny play oscillates stylistically between real-time realism and fantastical fabulation. Director Melissa Crespo’s dynamic, consistently-surprising, and richly theatrical production allows the intersecting complexities of Cato’s remarkable script to breathe fully — thanks in no small part to the contributions of the wildly charismatic cast: Yadira Correa, Danaya Esperanza, Claudia Ramos Jordán and the (ahem) transformative 

Cristina Pitter." - Brian Eugenio Herrera's #TheatreClique

"Directed by Melissa Crespo for Intar Theater and Radio Drama Network, “O.K.!” blends a loving critique of the theater with a historically minded explication of threats to women’s health and autonomy"

"Director Melissa Crespo, working in the intimate confines of INTAR Theatre, navigates this multiverse of tones with astonishing grace...She allows each layer of Cato’s world; the realism of reproductive rights, the mystical language of the spirits, and the surreal delight of a Latina reimagining of Oklahoma! to coexist without contradiction.'
