I am doing a report about Black-Hispanic mix people. Are there any Broadway performers that are black-hispanic?

No, there aren't any.

Sorry.

Why do you think they call it The Great White Way?

Yancey Arias played Black in "The Wild Party." That kind of counts.

I know she hasn't done Broadway in a long, long time but what about Irene Cara?


Praying Decca Broadway will put "Don't Bother Me, I Can't Cope" on CD!

Nope forget about it sweety. Broadway is racist and blacks and latinos and all others of color suffer the brunt of it. period!

Whateverman, I had a feelingthat you would post here. I just got one qustion for you. If you say that broadway is full of raciests then why would you post here?

Broadway is racist? That must be why there are no opportunities for minorities.... Not even in Rent, The Color Purple, The Lion King, Les Miserables......

I'm SO SICK of everyone pulling out the whiny, tired race card. Whatever, I have 3 things to say to you:

WAH WAH WAH!

Go cry on another message board and, while you're at it, knock that chip off your shoulder. It's not very flattering........

Allentown2, I don't quite understand the question. Are you asking if any of us can identify a dark-skinned Hispanic actor on Broadway who would be considered black by a standard applied in the US or by an actor of Hispanic extraction who self-identifies as black?

Yeah, this isn't exactly like pointing out every MLB player from the Dominican.

I'm assuming you mean actors who have a black mother and a hispanic father or vice versa. I'm sure there are some, but it would be hard to know unless we knew every minority Broadway performers' parents. I can't think of any that I'm sure on.

The girl who plays Squeak in The Color Purple is Black-Hispanic! I'm pretty sure. I read her bio on the memory book.
