She’s also the co-founder and co-artistic director of TuYo Theatre, a professional Latinx theater company in San Diego.
“We are delighted to have Patrice join us this season as our artist-in-residence,” said Christopher Ashley, the Playhouse’s artistic director, in a statement. “Her vision and fortitude have built the Latinx New Play Festival into one of the premiere events of its kind in the nation, and it’s an honor to be able to provide a new home for the festival this year, with Patrice at the helm.”The Latinx New Play Festival celebrates new theatrical work by Latinx playwrights from across the country.
More than 90 play submissions were received for this year’s festival, from which four scripts will be selected for rehearsal and development at the Playhouse. At the culmination of the process, the plays will have a live public reading at the Playhouse in October.
