To work in the theatre was an heroic enterprise.

Dolores Prida
"Theatre plays so many different roles in our community. It's not just show business, entertainment, literature, whatever. It's educational. It's sociology, it's an opportunity to see out in the open things that you've felt or have heard from your family and friends, things that are not perceived out there. Theatre brings out things we need to say and need to see."
