    "THIS IS SO GOOD!!!! It is superbly written and wonderfully acted, what a story and a journey, so funny and moving and honest. Just brilliant!!" - Playwright Penelope Skinner

    Despite Lucho’s best efforts to lay low and keep his head down, he can’t seem to go a day without getting teased or beaten at school. But after he comes across Cassandro: the "Liberace of the Lucha Libre", Lucho discovers that the solution to his problem lies within the world of Mexican Wrestling. Testosterono is born - and he's here to win.

    This funny and heartfelt one-man show is an unpacking of why Lucho's fighting, how he got there, and why he’s wearing a mask. The story is told bilingually through the lens of Mexican Wrestling and golden-age Disney Channel.

    "Tadeo Martinez is both hilarious and heartbreaking in equal measure."
    Gaby Foley
    "A queer coming of age story that will make you laugh and make you cry. Beautifully realized and a true tour-de-force performance. This is an absolute masterpiece and must see."
    Eliza Le Touzel Teale
