Dressing Up History
Dressing Up History
The Latino Theater Company opens its 40th Anniversary Season with the professional West Coast premiere of Just Like Us, a non-fiction play by Karen Zacarías, inspired by a bestselling book by Helen Thorpe.
Directed by Fidel Gomez (Tacos La Brooklyn), Just Like Us opens April 19 at The Los Angeles Theatre Center in downtown Los Angeles. Performances continue through May 18, with six low-priced previews taking place April 10 through April 18.
This true coming-of-age story about four Latina girls is more timely now than ever, posing difficult, yet essential questions about what makes us American. Reporter Helen Thorpe (Elyse Mirto) follows the lives of four Latina girls in Denver who straddle two worlds: Clara (Noelle Franco) and Elissa (Valerie Vega) hold legal documents, while Yadira (Newt Arlandiz) and Marisela (Blanca Isabella) do not. Against the odds, each finds her way into a good college, but the hurdles only mount from there. Student loans are not an option when you don't have a Social Security number, and if your parents face deportation, your siblings may be moving into your dorm.
Just Like Us opens on Saturday, April 19 at 8 p.m., with performances thereafter on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 4 p.m. through May 18. Six preview performances take place April 10 through April 18 on the same schedule. Tickets range from $10–$48, except opening night which is $75 and includes a post-performance reception.
The Los Angeles Theatre Center is located at 514 S. Spring St., Los Angeles, CA 90013. Parking is available for $8 with box office validation at Los Angeles Garage Associate Parking structure, 545 S. Main St., Los Angeles, CA 90013 (between 5th and 6th Streets, just behind the theater).
