A fan-favorite on Freeform’s Party of Five, Emily Tosta shines as the passionate, tell-it-how-itis Lucia Acosta. The series, which follows the Acosta siblings as they struggle to stay together in the wake of their parents’ deportation, tugs at your heartstrings while simultaneously inspiring you to help make these heartbreaking realities a thing of the past. “Throughout the series, you can expect a whirlwind of emotions, life lessons, laughs and tears,” Emily shares. “Though the circumstances are less than ideal, I love the voice that Lucia starts developing for herself. She is not afraid to speak her mind and she starts growing into who she is and learning to embrace her identity.”
