    November 30, 2017  |  In The News  |  

    On Wednesday, November 29, 2017, The Los Angeles City Hall honors LA VIRGEN DE GUADALUPE, DIOS INANTZIN, a Christmas pageant which has become a tradition in the Los Angeles community. From the first production 15 years ago, Evelina Fernandez has been an important contributor to this community-based production with professional actors and musicians. A second-generation Mexican-American, actor/playwright Evelina Fernandez is particularly well equipped to see the world from multiple perspectives. True to her roots, she became involved in the Chicano movement in college. In 1978, she played her first prominent role in Luis Valdez’s hit play, Zoot Suit. In 1985, she was a founding member of the Latino Theater Company, along with her husband, artistic director Luis Valenzuela. As an actress, she played in nearly 30 movies, shows, and film shorts. Donning her playwright cap, she has won professional recognition and several prestigious awards. Her loosely autobiographical play cycle, A Mexican Trilogy, highlighted the immigrant experience and gained critical acclaim.
