Teatro takes a moment to pause and relfect on its history

Teatro del Pueblo has finally reached our sweet sixteen but does that mean we should forget all the great times gone by? Of course not!
Teatro del Pueblo’s first spring began with Bodega, a critically acclaimed play about a Latino family strugging to survive in their neighborhood even in the middle of turbulent events. The play performed at Humboldt, and was well received.
10 years ago Teatro was gearing up for a production called “Home is Where the Start Is.”. This play used Theatre of the Oppressed as a way for students, teachers and families to deal with bullying and violence in the classroom. by using Theatre of the Oppressed and interactive techniques this show engaged students in a fun way to learn about respect and diversity.
Local director Nic Carter and Teatro teamed up for this important production. The show traveled between riverview, Cherokee, Roosevelt Elementaries, as well as St. Matthew’s Parochial school during the month of April.

Stay tuned for more fun facts about Teatro’s history!
