What does it mean to live as your true, authentic self? Latino Theater Company presents the world premiere of Level Up!, a Desi López, a trans tween, is afraid to come out to her family. In her oversized hoodie, Desi is seen as a boy IRL (in real life). But inside The Proxy, a richly imagined virtual world within the play’s digital realm, Desi discovers the freedom to exist as her true self: a powerful female warrior with enormous butterfly wings who embarks on an epic quest to save her dying dog and reunite with her mother. Level Up! is appropriate for ages 10 and up. Free child care for kids ages 4 and up, featuring fun, age-appropriate activities led by a trusted childcare team, will be provided during Saturday matinee performances, Latino Theater Company at The Los Angeles Theatre Center (The LATC), 514 S Spring St., Los Angeles, CA 90013; $10-$48; (213) 489-0994; www.latinotheaterco.org
