The Chicago Latino Theater Alliance (CLATA) is a transformative cultural engine helping drive our local Latino theater community to a more prominent level. Our organization is an ambitious and impactful program –which is urgently needed for our city as we wrestle with issues of cultural equity and inclusion.
It is a goal of ours to build a stronger foundation for the future Latino theater artists to thrive and grow!
