Identity Project: Guillermo Gomez-Pena

 I really don't know how to react to this.  Guillermo performs on stage to audiences alone and with his La Pocha Noche company.  He was born in Mexico City in 1955 and he came to the U.S. in 1978. His work includes journalism, art, poetry, performance and politics. He has been exploring intercultural issues for more than twenty years and has received numerous fellowships and prizes.  He tranforms a stage that connects himself  to his ethnic identity.
   Guillermo's work has been presented at over seven hundred venues across the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Austrialia, Europe,Columbia, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Brazil, Argentina and the Soviet Union.
