Zoot Suit L.A. Theatre Works
2021 · Luis Valdez · 112 min
The first Chicano play performed on Broadway, Luis Valdez's ground-breaking masterpiece uses the Sleepy Lagoon murder case to examine the Zoot Suit culture of the 1940s. Henry Reyna and the 38th Street Gang are discriminated against and tried for murder after a fight breaks out a party. Passionate and provocative, Zoot Suit pulses with the beat of a big band music and traditional Latin songs.
