“Rick Najera’s hit comedy LATINOLOGUES has been added to the 2007 Sí­ TV Latino Laugh Festival for a performance on Friday June 22, 2007 at the Ricardo Montalbán Theatre in Hollywood, CA.

All proceeds of the 2007 Latino Laugh Festival will benefit First Star, a non-profit organization that works to improve change in the U.S. child welfare system.

“The Latino Laugh Festival is one of the first places Latinologues performed and is a continuation of a tradition of showcasing the best Latino talent,” says Latinologues creator, writer and performer Rick Najera (MAD TV, In Living Color). “We are excited to be part of the festival again with guest performers and top new talent.”

Latinologues, an award-winning sketch comedy sensation that recently ran on Broadway directed by Cheech Marin, is the only Latino showcase of its kind in America with a rotating cast.
