SUMMARY:Latin History For Morons
DESCRIPTION:Written by John Leguizamo \n  \nLatin History for Morons is a hilarious and insightful exploration inspired by the glaring absence of Latinos in American history textbooks. In this uproarious comedy\, John Leguizamo embarks on a frenetic quest to uncover a Latin hero for his son’s school project. With his signature comedic flair\, he delivers a whirlwind recap of the Aztec Empire and shines a light on the unsung Latin patriots of the Revolutionary War and beyond\, distilling three thousand years of history—from the Mayans to Pitbull—into one hundred and ten irreverent and uncensored minutes that are both entertaining and enlightening. \n  \n“We could not be more excited to bring San Diego legend Herbert Siguena to the Brooks Theatre this winter with this hilarious show\,” says Goodman. “As a founding member of Culture Clash\, Herb has amazing comedic chops\, and he has several one-person shows on his resume that he has written and performed in all over the country. We think his interpretation of John Leguizamo’s work will delight Oceanside audiences – and everyone else too!” \n  \nOTC’s production of Latin History for Morons marks the first staging in San Diego outside of Leguizamo’s original touring production. Previously\, the show made its local debut at the La Jolla Playhouse in 2016\, followed by a one-night-only performance at the San Diego Civic Theatre in 2019. \n  \nOTC presents Latin History for Morons from May 23 to June 8 at the Brooks Theater (217 N Coast Hwy\, Oceanside\, CA). Inspired by the glaring absence of Latinos in American history textbooks\, this hilarious and insightful show follows the journey of a father as he seeks a Latin hero for his son’s school project. Originally created by John Leguizamo\, the production takes audiences on a whirlwind tour of 3\,000 years of history—from the Aztec Empire to modern icons—with humor and heart. May 23 – June 8\, 8 PM \n  \nDisclaimer: Latin History for Morons contains mature themes\, strong language\, and irreverent humor and is recommended for mature audiences.
