Nothing can prepare you for the incredible world of Culture Clash
or for their first ever collection of their best. This three-person
troupe of writers/performers is unique in the American landscape
for its imaginative explorations of contemporary Latino/Chicano
culture. Clashing with a society in transition, Culture Clash
physicalizes comedy and satire, paying homage to Charlie Chaplin,
Lenny Bruce, the Marx Brothers, and Catinflas, using vaudeville as
a political weapon.
Contents include: The Mission, in which three out-of-work
performers from San Francisco's Mission District kidnap Julio
Iglesias in a desperate attempt to get nationwide exposure for
their act; A Bowl of Beings, which includes the tale of the first
Hispanic -- Christopher Columbus's illegitimate son; "Stand and
Deliver Pizza", the story of the famous math teacher who recruits
young Chicanos to work in his pizza parlor; and Radio Mambo,
wherein Culture Clash invades Miami to uncover a stewing pot of
ethnicity, creating "a work that's as shrewd, vibrant, and
outrageous as Miami itself", according to Time Out New York.
