4x45 is an innovative series of commissioned academic lectures and interviews, captured on film, providing a range of perspectives on a topic, theme or practitioner. Each volume, comprising four chapters, is hosted on Digital Theatre+ and published in print by Routledge.
In this interview from Volume Four, ‘The Theater of Luis Valdez’ (2020), Michael Chemers talks to Edward James Olmos, a multi-award-winning actor, movie star and activist for Hispanic representation. Olmos discusses his work on Valdez’s Zoot Suit - the first Chicano play and arguably a precursor to Hamilton - and the journey to Broadway.
