This summer, celebrate the holiday weekend with Emmy-nominated sketch group The Latino Comedy Project in a comedy fiesta set “not long ago, in a barrio just around the way…”
This is not your fanboy’s Star Wars.
“¡Estar Guars!” runs ONE WEEKEND ONLY, Friday through Sunday, July 5-7 at The Scottish Rite Theater in Austin, Texas.
In ¡Estar Guars!, The Latino Comedy Project asks the question: What would Star Wars have looked like if George Lucas had been JORGE Lucas?
In a loving homage of live comedy, original videos and visual spectacle, ¡Estar Guars! re-creates the classic sci-fi rebellion as a modern-day Resistencia, complete with Galactic Walls, space chanclas, migrant moisture farmers, fearless princesas, mystical abuelas and the targeting of Sanctuary Planetas by an evil empire determined to MAGGA (Make A Galaxy Great Again).
They're all here: Luke, La Princesa Leia Organa-Cortez, Tio Juan Kenobi, Yola, R2Me2, Darth Vendido, ICE Troopers and more!
Critics called ¡Estar Guars! "a witty homage to the classic film so many love, full of charm and hope for a better world for all people, a feel-good interlude for our troubled times" and "one of the funniest live shows I've ever seen."
