Take Ten is fast-paced evening of 10-minute plays by the award-winning students from Theater Masters’ National MFA Playwrights Competition. Featuring 8 plays by students at Arizona State University, Brown, Carnegie Mellon University, Northwestern, NYU, UCLA and UCSD.

33rd Chicago Latino Film Festival

This year I’m excited to have a film in the 33rd Chicago Latino Film Festival. Mariachi Madness was such a joy to film last year and I will be excited to see it on the big screen alongside some of the best up and coming films.

The Chicago Latino Film Festival is produced every April by the International Latino Cultural Center of Chicago, a pan-Latino, nonprofit, multidisciplinary arts organization dedicated to developing, promoting and increasing awareness of Latino culture among Latinos and other communities by presenting a wide variety of art forms. The Chicago Latino Film Festival began in 1985 with 14 films projected onto a concrete wall for 500 viewers, and has now grown into the ILCC, which was originally founded as Chicago Latino Cinema.

This is a wonderful organization and I’m proud to go and support my film with many other Latino artists.

For more information please visit the Chicago Latino Film Festival website.


It was awesome seeing my face on the big screen! I can’t wait for more opportunities like this to come!

Children of the Republic

Gonzalo Rodriguez Risco’s (MFA Yale 2009)  Children of the Republic, directed by Elena Araoz, tells of a Peruvian political family navigating a contentious election, while trying to make sense of the emotional complexity of family. It truly is a very smart, engaging, heartfelt piece. I will take part in the development of this play via a 29-hour rehearsal period, which will culminate in a public presentation at the Ars Nova loft. Rico’s play Dramatis Personae was produced by The Cherry Lane Theatre and The Playwrights Realm in 2010.

I can’t wait to see how this goes. Working with The Playwrights Realm is always a joy!

Off the Runway

I was recently cast in this hilarious pilot due to be pitched this fall. The script is under wraps so I can’t share much yet, but it has amazing writing by Vincent G. Palumbo. The cast includes Oscar nominee Cathy Moriarty (Raging Bull, Analyze That) and Alfred Sauchelli Jr.(A Bronx Tale, Analyze This). It will be a privilege to share a room with, what is, a great cast and crew!
