Get ready, get set…get ¡Ser! The world premiere of a comedic solo show written and performed by Karen Anzoategui that features live music by CAVA and Walter Miranda written in collaboration with Louie Pérez of Los Lobos. ¡Ser! is a riveting personal narrative that examines a queer Latina’s strained relationship with each of her two homes: Los Angeles, and Buenos Aires.

Nov. 15-Dec. 8; Los Angeles Theatre Center, 514 S Spring St., Los Angeles, CA 90013; $10-$30; (866) 811-4111
