It has been 15 years since the Breath of Fire Latina Theater Ensemble took its first breath. Despite a few inactive years and vast changes within its membership, the Santa Ana-based theater ensemble, which was founded to support the work and enrich the lives of Latinas, recently celebrated its quinceañera in good health and with ambitious plans for the future. Voice of OC talked recently with Breath of Fire founder Sara Guerrero about the group’s origins, its challenges and what’s to come.
