Todos Somos ChUSMA, ChUSMA!!!

About Me

ALGUIEN DIJO ChUSMA?Out of the crevices of Los Angeles' valleys, montañas, universities, streets, y lomas...comes ChUSMA: one of the nation's up and coming Chicano/Latino theater troupes.HILARIOUS, DRAMATIC, YET THOUGHT-PROVOKING; ChUSMA's unique theater style embraces the theatrical heritage of the early Mexican carpa, Pre-Cuauhtemoc(pre-colombian), 1960's Chicano theater of resistance, and neo-vaudevillian traditions.Since 1997, ChUSMA's theatrical performances have forged history and oral traditions with modern technology in procreating theater reflective of their communities. In these new urban settings and urgent times ChUSMA transcends borders to inspire a new generation of theater audiences.*************************************I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
