Aliens, Immigrants & Other Evil Doers at The Los Angeles Theatre Center

A sci-fi Latino noir satire, inspired by interviews with immigrants who crossed the border to escape economic despair and war, that spotlights anti-immigrant hysteria. In a visually dynamic, profoundly moving and provocatively funny tour de force, New Orleans-based performance artist Jos Torres-Tama confronts the immigration issue head-on with a genre-bending multimedia performance incorporating film projections, personal stories and poetic texts, humanizing people in search of a dream, and putting a heart and face on today's immigrant. Limited two week engagement Oct. 24 Nov. 3 at The Los Angeles Theatre Center, 514 S. Spring St., Los Angeles, CA 90013; $38; For reservations and information, call (866) 811-4111 or go to www.thelatc.org.
