1. What was it about these specific LA urban communities that convinced you to settle the company in Los Angeles instead of in another highly populated city such as New York, Chicago, or Washington?
2. Would you ever consider returning to a piece and adapting it based on monumental current events? For example, would you be open to reexamining and incorporating material into Los Illegals (2007) because of Trump's recent move to dismantle DACA?
3. In the past, new theater troupes that have sprouted from Cornerstore (such as Theatro Jornalero) have developed short plays and toured these works to relevant sites; would you ever try performing these short plays in a street theater setting in order to reach a wider audience of individuals who might not typically step into a theater space and challenge them to learn about issues that potentially make them uncomfortable?
