Famed Chicano performance troupe Culture Clash, featuring Richard Montoya, Ric Salinas and Herbert Siguenza, proudly returns to San Diego for one special performance celebrating the group’s 40th Anniversary. “Culture Clash’s 40th Anniversary Desmadre” is an all-new show in honor of 40 years of comedy that will serve up an explosive cocktail of humor and satirical outrage. Through residencies across the city in the 1990s and 2000s, this eclectic group of California natives became a favorite for many San Diego theatre and comedy fans, developing a large diverse loyal fan base. “Their comedy can be rude, crude, witty, refined, pointed and highbrow, often within the same sketch. Their shows are driven with broad strokes of sweeping yet topical satire penetrating their targets every moment they take the stage” writes The San Jose Mercury News. They will be joined by longtime friend collaborator Kirk Ward and hilarious standup comedian Mala Muñoz. Pianist Michael Roth will accompany Culture Clash throughout the evening. Get ready to celebrate four decades of humor, satire, and desmadre (that's chaos!) with Culture Clash! Tickets are available via San Diego Theatres and Ticketmaster.
