Actor Plays 11 Characters In His One-Man Show 'La Esquinita'

Let's travel now to a small town, a fictitious town but one that may sound familiar — La Esquinita, U.S.A.

Ruben Gonzalez, an actor and writer, writes and stars in the one-man show "La Esquinita, U.S.A."

It's made up of a series of separate stories, and Gonzalez plays 11 characters. The show is set in a border town but Gonzalez said it could be set in any number of small towns across the country.
