‘Gaytino’ – Dan Guerrero’s ‘charming depiction’ of his life

“When Dan Guerrero, son of Eduardo “Lalo” Guerrero, first came up with the idea for a one-man show about growing up gay and Latino in America, he sat down and put together two lists.

“As I looked at the gay community and the Latino community, I saw so many similarities,” Guerrero, 66, said in a phone interview last week from his West Hollywood home. “I thought, ‘When did I first realize I was gay?’ and then wrote that down. Then I thought, ‘When did I first realize I was Mexican?’ and wrote that down. ‘When was the first time I was discriminated against as a Mexican and as a gay man?’ and so on. I wrote down my experiences with both and started to mix and match.”"
