Latino theatre presents a wide range of aesthetic approaches, dramatic structures, and themes, ranging from love, romance, immigration, border politics, nation building, incarceration, and social justice.[1] Whether of a linguistic, ethnic, political, cultural or sexual nature, the plays often have a social justice component involving Latino people living in the United States.[2]The Oxcart by René Marqués,[3]Marisol by José Rivera,[4] and In the Heights[5] by Lin-Manuel Miranda are examples of staged Broadway plays. There is also a strong tradition of Latino avant-garde and absurdist theatre,[6] which double as political satires; prime examples include The Masses are Asses by Pedro Pietri[7] and United States of Banana by Giannina Braschi.[8]
