Chusma is the nation's freshest young Latino/Chicano comedy trio,
comprised of Gustavo Chavez, Alberto Ibarra del Alto and Marisol
Torres. The company embraces a theatrical heritage encompassing
neo-vaudevillian, early Mexican carpa, the 60's Chicano theatre
of resistance, and the oral traditions of Pre-Cuahtemoc societies
without skimping on the laughs. Their show brings Anglo and Latino
audiences together for a truly hilarious, thought-provoking
theatrical experience. Their repertoire includes both sketch comedy
shows such as "The Carpa Show" and the more theatrical
"The Mission" written and first performed by Culture
Clash.
