Teatro Inmigrante

Teatro Inmigrante, (Immigrant Theater), composed mostly of women, was formed in 2001 by Lira and Wells in response to the immigrant bashing which had begun in such dead earnest nationwide. Inmigrante dramatizes the life and death issues confronting undocumented immigrants through its original plays, highlighting the contributions and accomplishments of Latino women, demonstrating that immigrant energy builds and nourishes this nation.

Teatro Inmigrante produces new plays drawing from the pages of Chicana/o history and modern-day life, such as:

Teatro Inmigrante received the Organizational Way of Peace Award (2007) from the Fresno Center for Nonviolence for “their intrepid work in theater and music of high excellence.”
