With support from the California Arts Council, TEATRO DE LAS AMERICAS INCORPORATED will continue its presence in the City of Oxnard in The County of Ventura by emerging from an volunteer Executive Administrator to a salaried Executive Administrator. The transition from a volunteer Executive Director makes Teatro an emerging organization, and assures its continued existence.
Since its foundation, Teatro has presented plays drawn primarily from Spanish-language playwrights from various countries. They are staged in Spanish with projection of English super-titles.
Over the years productions have involved over 300 actors, stage hands, and volunteers, and an audiences approaching 10,000. Actors, volunteers and audience range from farm-workers to professionals, from newly arrived, second, and later generation Spanish-speakers, to English-speakers who wish to learn or hone their skills in Spanish or simply wish to participate in theater. Teatro provides acting workshops to community members of all ages from among whom it draws casts and crews for its productions.
