The Latino Theater Company

Partners: Pregones/Puerto Rican Traveling Theatre, Los Angeles Community College District 

The Latino Theater Company (LTC) at The Los Angeles Theatre Center (LATC) serves as a vital hub for artistic excellence, exploring the U.S. Latine experience while amplifying underrepresented voices across diverse communities. Through the “Circle of Imaginistas” project, LTC nurtures Latine playwrights to expand the canon of culturally specific works for the American stage by commissioning, developing, and producing Gabriel Rivas Gomez’s Level Up, Evelina Fernandez’s The Storyteller: A Memory Play, Luis Alfaros’ Earlimart, and Karen Zacarias’ Sisters. LTC’s “Impact Initiative” provides cost-free theater subscriptions to underserved community college students, fostering a new generation of engaged theater-goers. Together, these initiatives blend tradition and innovation, empowering both artists and audiences to engage in meaningful cultural and social dialogues.
