As the company has evolved, our role as the operator of the Los Angeles Theatre Center has become critical to our mission. As we continue to explore the U.S. Latinx experience in bold and contemporary terms, we program our Fall and Spring Seasons with work that speaks to important issues and highlights new voices within the Latinx, African American, Asian American, Jewish American, and LGBTQ communities.
