History

Established in 1977.

Founded in 1977 as a small troupe known as «Teatro Bilingüe de Houston» (Bilingual Theater of Houston), this non-​profit organization has evolved into a Latino Cultural Arts Center that offers a year-​round series of performing arts and exhibits, alongside educational programming such as ongoing multidisciplinary workshops, a summer arts camp for children, and school touring productions.

The center has built positive significant collaborations with various theatre groups, arts organizations, environmental groups, educational institutions, businesses, and marketing groups. Recent unprecedented partnerships with the Houston Grand Opera and Opera in the Heights expanded cultural programming and exposed audiences to world-​class talent. Performances have received outstanding reviews, such as the production of the fable Bocon, which was voted Best Bilingual Production by the Houston Press in 2010. Last year, almost 60,000 onsite and offsite audience’s lives were enriched by its performances
