La Victima

La Victima was the first show ever produced by the Latino Theater Company in 1985. Created by El Teatro De La Esperanza — a company that helped define Chicano theater and an entire generation of theater professionals — it’s a groundbreaking look, infused with humor, music and dance, at the history of Mexican-U.S. immigration from the intimate perspective of two families. Watch archival footage of the 2010 revival featuring the late Lupe Ontiveros (Selena, Desperate Housewives), who was one of LTC’s founding company members.
