Critical Conversations

Release Date: 06/07/2021

Playwright and Vida showrunner Tanya Saracho joins USC professor Elda María Román to talk about how Latinx representation on the stage, page and screen (both big and small) are never an easy task. Instead they invite writers to think and work through all sorts of nuance, “messiness,” and breadth. Their discussion affirms how and why our identities can never be seen as monolithic.
