La Banda is a part of Rerun Month 2025 in January!The original run might be over, but we’re back for ONE NIGHT ONLY!
You can buy tickets right on this page, or go to the Rerun Month Event Page for more info and the complete schedule.
Every show is a completely different improv comedy format!
The Hispanic Heritage show is the led by award-winning director Jess Leal von Schramm who was inspired to create this show to show the breadth and scope of her culture.
“I want the audience to feel like the Hispanic culture is limitless,” says Leal von Schramm. “We come in all different shapes and sizes and can do anything! We aren’t a stereotype. We aren’t in a box. We are everything!”
This talented cast will take on “La Banda” (a biopic about a made up musician!), then “Los Buddy Cops” (a 70s crime-fighting romp), then last year’s award-winning hit show “The Selena Sing-A-Long” and we finish up the Hispanic Heritage Show with My Killer Quinceañera (a quinceañera fights vampires! demons! more!)
See full cast lists of each shows below!
“I’m excited about showcasing the Latin culture in a way audiences may not have seen in improv shows,” says director Leal von Schramm. “Each show has their own genre, their own style, their own format. Each are so different but all are rooted in the Latino culture. I can’t wait for audiences to see what we come up with week after week!”
