Ryan Morales is an actor, a singer, a producer, an activist and the Founder & Producing Artistic Director of Latiné Musical Theatre Lab, an organization that develops and advocates for new Latiné-written works of musical theatre. His mission is to radically change who gets to tell musical stories on stages across the country and around the world.
