Teatro Chicana author visit

Our visit with the authors and editors of Teatro Chicana: A Collective Memoir and Selected plays was a success. The women shared stories from their book speaking about their adventures and life experiences while in Teatro Chicana as well as how they came to be involved in Teatro. They spoke about the collective feeling of discontent amongst the youth of the late 1960’s and 1970’s and how Teatro allowed them to address the many issues faced by women and people of color during this time. Twenty-five students and staff attended the session. They had the opportunity to ask questions, talk with the authors and have books and posters signed.
