John Leguizamo‘s Latin History for Morons returns this fall — this time at Broadway’s Studio 54.
The one-man comedy, written and performed by Leguizamo and directed by Tony Taccone, is scheduled for a limited engagement beginning Oct. 19, after appearing off Broadway.
Leguizamo lays out “the buried and forgotten history of Latinos in the Americas in this outrageously funny, satirical one-man play about uncovering the truth, and recovering from the past,” in an effort to choose a Latin hero for his son to report on in a history class project, says a press release.
The play was previously performed at The Public Theater and Berkeley Repertory Theater. Producing credits go to Nelle Nugent and Kenneth Teaton. Scenic design was done by Rachel Hauck, lighting design by Alexander V. Nichols and music and sound design by Bray Poor.
Leguizamo, an actor in television, film and theatre, has created several shows for the stage, including Mambo Mouth, Spic-O-Rama, Freak and Ghetto Klown.
Latin History for Morons will show at Studio 54 from Oct. 19 through Feb. 4. See the full schedule and order tickets here.
