Jack Agüeros, the activist, poet, playwright and former director of El Museo del Barrio is being honored this month at the famed Medicine Show Ensemble Theatre with the presentation of four of his seldom seen plays. The production is directed by Oliver Conant and opens October 5th with 5 shows a week for 4 weeks. The play runs Wednesdays through Saturdays at 7:30pm, Saturday matinees are at 3pm.
A champion of the Puerto Rican and Latino people of New York City, he was a versatile and multi-talented writer who is somewhat lost to many younger Latinos. The company presented his work earlier this year at El Museo Del Barrio and is now embarking in a new, full-scale production of these plays in an effort to draw attention to Mr. Agüeros in time for Hispanic Heritage Month.
