Chicanas, Cholas, Y Chisme presents, "UN ACTO CON IMPACTO" , a collection of one-act plays written and directed by Latinas in celebration of Latina voices.  These 14 all-new works will be presented over 4 weekends, with Show 1 featuring 7 one-acts over 2 weekends and Show 2 featuring 7 different one-acts over 2 more weekends.

“Chicanas, Cholas y Chisme: Un Acto Con Impacto” is the second of three productions this year by Chicanas, Cholas, y Chisme, a program that began from the desire to foster more Latina-driven creative work.  Since its modest beginning in 2013, Chicanas, Cholas, y Chisme has more than quadrupled in size.  Because of its success, three different productions for short plays, one-acts and one-woman performances are scheduled at Casa 0101 this year.
