Endless critical and audience acclaim direct from Broadway. A sold-out run at The Public Theater. A record-breaking engagement at Berkeley Repertory Theatre. LATIN HISTORY FOR MORONS, the most totally unique show of the season, reveals Americas unsung heroes, throughout past and presentall unforgettably told by Tony and Emmy Award winner John Leguizamo, one of the most incisive, insightful and entertaining personalities on stage today.LATIN HISTORY FOR MORONS is inspired by the near total absence of Latinos from his sons American history books. John Leguizamo embarks on an outrageously funny, frenzied search to find a Latin hero for his sons school history project. From a mad recap of the Aztec empire to stories of unknown Latino patriots of the Revolutionary War and beyond, Leguizamo breaks down the 3,000 years between the Mayans and Pitbull into 110 irreverent and uncensored minutes above and beyond his unique style.

Finding a way to entertain and educate can be tricky. When an artist turns educator, there is a certain magic that happens when it's done with amazing skill and clear facts. The genius of John Leguizamo is that he finds a way to marry the two while amusing us, tugging at our heartstrings, and opening our eyes to the impact of the Latin community in American history.
Broadway In Chicago is pleased to announce that Tony Award winner John Leguizamo's one-man play LATIN HISTORY FOR MORONS will play Broadway In Chicago's Cadillac Palace Theatre (151 W. Randolph) for a limited one-week engagement from October 29 - November 3 following its Tony-nominated hit Broadway run seen by tens of thousands.
