On stage
The documented stage experience
American Night: The Ballad Of Juan Jose is a 120-minute stage play blending satire, history, and sharp social commentary. Written by Richard Montoya and developed by Culture Clash (Montoya, Ric Salinas, Herbert Sigüenza) and directed by Jo Bonney for the original production, it premiered as part of a commissioning project for the Oregon Shakespeare Festival's American Revolutions cycle. Since its debut, the work has been praised by major outlets for its incisive take on American history.
