Hanan is a promising young pop singer, and she has a record label dying to record her...until they find out she's Lebanese. Not to worry, they say: Hanan can still be a star—as long as she learns to be Latina! In this fiercely funny world-premiere production from local badass Enrique Urueta, cultural identities and the music business are poked with some very, very sharp sticks. The award-winning Mary Guzmán, who helmed Latina's first incarnation as a one-act, returns to direct this full-length production. The SF Weekly’s Chloe Veltman wrote of the one-act, “Latina delivers a serious message about racial stereotyping in the pop music industry through zany, stylized theatrics.” Don't miss what is sure to be the most blistering comedy to play the Bay Area this season.

Featuring Andrew Calabrese, Melanie Salazar Case, Marilet Martinez, Jon Nagel, Carlye Pollack, and Emily Rosenthal
