To be real, the "production" is at a tiny crapbox theater of less than fifty seats and it plays twelve performances in Los Angeles - the creative team, such as it is, and the cast, such as it is, is, well, perhaps, less than stellar. There are hundreds of these little things every year - sometimes they do this kind of thing to get noticed - the name of the production company should clue everyone in on who they are: Pop-Up Productions. It seems rather silly to me to do this particular play about a real and very particular person with a Latino cast, but that's just me. I don't think for a second that the Latino population would like it if Pop-Up Productions did a version of In the Heights with an all-white cast.
I don't think at this point in time it is possible to look at what's happening here and think it's good. I think that is elmore's point and he is passionate about it. Partisanship is a rather silly thing when it blinds to what can be clearly seen.
