As one of Claman's honors theses, Claman wrote a full length Spanish play, inspired by her experiences in Argentina, as well as what she had learned from her Spanish classes about the loss of innocence and marginalization of children in some Latin American countries. After writing her thesis, she arranged to have a two night reading of her play (one night in Spanish, one night in English) during the June following her graduation (Iowa City, IA). Sayde Hampton co-directed the reading with Claman. They gathered a cast of bilingual local actors and rehearsed four times before the production (2018).
