Platanos & Collard Greens, Feb 8

The Latin American Student Organization of Central Connecticut State University is bringing the off-Broadway play, Platanos and Collard Greens to CCSU on Wednesday, February 8, 2012 in Torpe Theatre.

Platanos and Collard Greens is a thought-provoking romantic comedy that tactfully addresses stereotypes, prejudices and urban myths that exist between African Americans and Latinos, within the context of Hip-Hop, humor, and satire. The play impels the audience to evaluate pervasive stereotypes. This program is meant to promote unity and mutual respect on campus through entertainment and performance.

This critically acclaimed play does an outstanding job at bringing about stereotypes in a comfortable environment. It addresses many issues and promotes diversity amongst cultures.

Free and open to the public. www.ccsu.edu/visit
