Latinologues, a comedy show now on Broadway, is a series of monologues based on a Latino’s experience in the USA.

Though this is its first time on Broadway, Latinologues has been around, with specials on Showtime & HBO. They also have 2 DVD’s available.

Written by Rick Najera, directed by Cheech Marin, and performed in English, the show runs through Dec 4.
