The Life and Times of Juanito Gonzalez is a one-man, one-act, family friendly, children’s play written and performed by Pedro Garcia. The fun & heartfelt show explores the importance of education, love and life and is set on día de muertos.
“The story is geared toward school children & youth with a clear and positive message that says, reading and writing and paying attention to your teachers is important,” said Garcia, long time theatre actor and producer, who also directs the performance.

Today his relatives will re-live fond memories of him. Watch him jubilantly tell his story from childhood and all throughout his magnificent life!
