Teatro Vista…Theatre With a View was founded in 1989 by Chicago theater artists Edward Torres and Henry Godinez along with a group of Equity and non-Equity actors. They had become aware first hand of the absence of Latino theatrical productions and artists as well as a lack of mission to develop and nurture Latino audiences by producing theater that speaks directly to their experiences. It was with this thought in the forefront of their minds that they set about to make a change in the Chicago theatre landscape.
