OCT 15 - NOV 15, 2026
In a small Pentecostal church surrounded by the cornfields of
California’s San Joaquin Valley, faith, family, and community are being tested.
For years, Hermana Romie has quietly written the sermons preached by her pastor husband, keeping her own gifts hidden within the patriarchal traditions of the church. But when he suddenly disappears, Romie finds herself at a crossroads. As immigration raids threaten their community and her daughter prepares to leave for a new life in Los Angeles, she must decide whether to remain in the shadows or step forward and claim her own voice.
Filled with humor, chisme, food, faith, and the unmistakable rhythms of small-town California, Speaking in Tongues is a funny and poignant new play by MacArthur “Genius Grant” recipient Luis Alfaro about finding your voice, questioning tradition, and discovering how faith can become a force for action.
Commissioned by Latino Theater Company and developed through its Circle of Imaginistas playwriting group, this world premiere celebrates the resilience of a community determined to care for one another when the world around them begins to change.

Latino Theater Company is committed to providing full access to patrons with disabilities. Our theatre is ADA accessible and is enabled with the following features.
A minimum of 3 wheelchair and semi-ambulatory tickets are available throughout this Theater.
Our theatre has raked seating, with steps to most rows. Most seats are fixed, though there are a limited number of free-standing seats that may be preferable for some patrons.
Accessible seating is available to those with mobility disabilities who require accessible seating because of their disability, at most price levels. This includes individuals who use wheelchairs, those who use other mobility devices, and people who cannot climb steps or walk long distances because of significant arthritis, or severe respiratory, circulatory, or cardiac conditions. Individuals who, because of their disability, cannot sit in a straight-back chair or those whose service dogs cannot fit under a non-accessible seat or lie safely in the aisle are also permitted to purchase accessible seats.
Individuals purchasing a ticket for an accessible seat may purchase up to three (3) additional seats for their companions in the same row and that are contiguous with the accessible seat. If contiguous seats have already been sold and are not available, the Latino Theater Co. will offer other seats as close to the accessible seats as possible.
