Broadway was nicknamed “The Great White Way” for the bright lights and big marquees that marked New York City’s biggest playhouses. You could apply that same phrase to Vegas’ theater scene as well — but for less flattering reasons.

Anyone paying attention to the casts of local stage productions will notice they are dominated by white actors. And even with Latinos making up more than a fourth of Las Vegas’ population, you’d be hard-pressed to find them gracing our off-Strip stages.
