Tall Hispanic-Short Hispanic Productions
Tall Hispanic Short Hispanic Productions and Dominizuelan is a union that has been formed out of a lot of love, creativity, sass and salsa.
Lori and Wendy truly have a talent for reaching out and pulling from all aspects of art. Their first scripted show, "People in the City" is a testament to everything they have a passion for: their upbringing, the music they love, the poetry, the cities they've lived in, "...this is us" says Dominizuelan.
"People in the City" is a virtual tour of the many urban characters that they have come across in their experiences in New York, Miami and now Chicago. They present the show with a flair for their culture, and as homage to their families, who are always a mix of 'old country' and 'new country'.
"We like to think that we present these concepts in an un-conventional way through the use of of music and dance for seam-less transitions. We strive to show that although we may be labeled as Latin Americans, our characters' experiences are relevant, no matter where you were born. "

Tall Hispanic- Short Hispanic Productions was created in the spirit of the "latino movement" in the arts and strives to find new work and artists to collaborate with.
Their next shows "Multiple Americas", a title inspired by a quote from Junot Diaz, is already being work-shopped and produced through Teatro Luna.
"as he grew up, Diaz says he came to see the United States as a
composite of "Multiple Americas": Ones that were racist and xenophobic,
coupled with Americas where anything is possible — where a kid can
"come from a non-bookish culture and be transformed." - Isak interview Junot Diaz
