The Classic Theatre's To Present ROOSTERS At La Zona

The Classic Theatre of San Antonio is redefining the theater experience by bringing their upcoming production of Roosters to a new, innovative location.

Roosters will be held at La Zona, Centro San Antonio's newest outdoor placemaking space in the heart of Zona Cultural District. The show runs from September 8th - 25th. Tickets are available via The Classic's website, www.classictheatre.org.

Written in English by Milcha Sanchez-Scott, Roosters follows a Hispanic-American family in the rural southwest. Balancing humor, poignance, and powerful drama, this arresting play probes into the problems and the growing conflict between a ne'er-do-well father and his rebellious son in the world of competitive c*ckfighting.

"Roosters is a multicultural classic and a traditional favorite of San Antonio audiences," says Jimmy Moore, Producing Artistic Director of The Classic Theatre. "An extremely relatable drama and a hallmark of the magical realism style, Roosters, with its evocative setting at La Zona and talented local artists, is sure to impress and inspire."

The cast of Roosters will include:

Ivan Ortega as Hector

Salvador Valadez as Gallo

Lisa Suarez as Juana

Marisa Varela as Chata

Matthew Dominguez as Adan

Lucero Perez as Angela

Luis Garcia Jr. as Zapata & Shadow 1

Viviana Daghero as San Juan & Shadow 2

Roosters will be directed by José Rubén De León.

Audience members will find La Zona has shady and comfortable audience-style seating, concessions with craft food and drink, accessible downtown parking, and air-conditioned restrooms. It is guaranteed to be an unforgettable cultural arts experience in one of San Antonio's up and coming art scenes.
