¡Ven y disfruta de una comedia llena de humor para toda la familia! Escrita y dirigida por Carlos Chavez, con una actuación especial de miembros de la comunidad.

El teatro popular es un tipo de teatro hecho para el pueblo y sobre la vida del pueblo. Se caracteriza por ser accesible, cercano y fácil de entender, muchas veces usando humor, música, lenguaje cotidiano y temas de la vida diaria. Reflejando su cultura, sus problemas y su forma de ver el mundo.

En esta ocasión tres latinas inmigrantes presentan un show lleno de risas sobre la vida en Estados Unidos: las compras, la cocina, los hijos y el chisme familiar. ¡Historias divertidas que quienes viven entre dos culturas pueden entender!

Come and enjoy a comedy full of laughter! Fun for the whole family. Presented in Spanish.
