Performer Peru Flores was once in need on of a savior. At thirteen years old living in South America, hormones were at an all-time high while his identity was at an all-time low. Now, on the cusp of a major discovery that will change his life forever, he will soon realize that maybe — just maybe — he was the savior that we needed all along…?

In a one-of-a-kind show, Peru goes on a trip down memory lane, being thirteen in his favorite sanctuary (his bedroom). Featuring real home video footage, dance numbers, and music from Grammy-winning Latin rapper/singer Nathy Peluso, White Savior is a love letter to the identity crisis one experiences growing up brown, queer, and lost.

Move over, Jesus! Peru Is The White Savior this country has been waiting for!
