"Much Ado About Nothing" at the Cerritos Library

Alumni gathered at the beautiful Cerritos Library for an afternoon performance by the East LA Classic Theatre of “Much Ado About Nothing.”  LMU Alumnus Tony Plana ’75, an accomplished actor, director, producer and the co-founder and executive artistic director of East L.A. Classic Theatre, warmly welcomed fellow alumni to experience this contemporary adaptation of classical Shakespeare.  Everyone enjoyed this high energy, family friendly performance, especially seeing Alumnus Roberto Alcaraz ‘91 star in the roll of Claudio.  Two young ladies from the audience were also a big hit as they were invited to take part in the performance as deputies (see photo below).  Special thanks to Tony Plana ’75 and all of the performers of the East LA Classical Theatre, a group dedicated to the development and professional delivery of educational outreach programs and classic theatrical productions that authentically reflect the diversity of American society.
