RUTH ON THE ROCKS

Ruth Guerra is just your average Mexican American, middle-aged girl that grew up in the hood on Chicago’s Southside and loves a good drink or ten, her jams and a messy relationship. Oh! She’s also a mother and grandmother, regular at a few bars and backyards, sometimes actor and storyteller, and still grieving her father. She probably needs a therapist or an Ayahuasca trip but instead this veteran of Chicago’s underground Latino performance and storytelling scene made a play about her hot ass mess of a life.
