Artist Description
The idea for TeatroStageFest began in 2003, when Mayor Michael Bloomberg appointed José W. Fernandez as a Commissioner on the NYC Latin Media & Entertainment Commission. As Mr. Fernandez worked with the other Commissioners to promote New York City as the center of Latin entertainment, he was inspired to bring together the many Hispanic theaters that are part of New York City's cultural life. He joined with Susana Tubert, an established theater director, to found the Latino International Theater Festival of New York, Inc.(LITF/NY) to achieve this goal.LITF/NY is a non-profit 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization. Our mission is to support year-round New York-based Latino theater solo artists and companies, encourage artistic dialogue and collaboration between local, national and international groups, and to be the portal to a global community that promotes exchanges with other cultural organizations and theater festivals from around the world.
