22 Sep 2005Latinologues, 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.
I have to admit that I have not seen the show, but I have seen and listened to quotes from their website. Here is a little taste of what to expect. This monologue was given by a character Buford Gomez, Border Patrol, giving a special seminar:
Not every single Latino is Mexican, there’s different kind of Mexicans. There’s Colombian Mexicans, Guatemalan Mexicans…Puerto Ricans are legal Mexicans. Cubans are Mexicans with boats. Argentineans, you are not European, I repeat you are not European.
Written by Rick Najera, directed by Cheech Marin, and performed in English, the show runs through Dec 4.
VivirLatino is a daily publication published by Mamita Mala Media, dedicated to featuring all the latest politics, culture, entertainment of interest to the diverse Latin@ diaspora.
