BWW Review: Satirical and Ultra Splashy EL GRANDE CIRCUS DE COCA COLA Returns
by Don Grigware - Nov 9, 2015


Ron House's original El Grande de Coca Cola was a huge hit and ran for 3 years off-Broadway. It's about the five-member Hernandez family, an in.your.face incompetent troupe of Mexican cabaret performers who have spent many many years performing in run-down over.the.border clubs. Now House returns with his latest version of the show, an ultra-satirical El Grande Circus de Coca Cola which sold out houses at the Skylight Theatre in Hollywood last summer. It has just reopened at the Colony in Burbank with the same cast headed by Marcelo Tubert as padre Pepe Hernandez. The family may be worthless performers but their Hispanic pride and ambition are unstoppable and drive them across the border into Burbank with the hope of full-out Hollywoodland success. It's lunacy with about a laugh every second, and under Alan Shearman's well-honed direction, the riotous troupe are bound to bring Colony audiences much pre-holiday joy through December 13.

BWW Reviews: An Energetic, Enthusiastic El Grande CIRCUS de Coca-Cola Missing a Little Fizz
by Gil Kaan - Jul 27, 2015


The talented five-member cast, directed by Alan Shearman, certainly must be commended on their commitment and enthusiasm as they interact with the audience as second-rate circus artists and plow through their intentionally bad vaudeville routines. Just as a clown must know the correct techniques to pratfall or look ridiculous, best acts hit their intended, targeted reactions of laughter and applause when the audience's allowed to realize the good, solid techniques behind these really bad circus feats.

BWW Reviews: Ruskin Group Theatre Taps Original Collaborators for the Hilarious EL GRANDE DE COCA-COLA
by Shari Barrett - Aug 3, 2013


It's a rare thing to be able to see a writer perform his own work onstage, especially in a role he created. Those of you lucky enough to see EL GRANDE DE COCA-COLA at the Ruskin Group Theatre are in for quite a treat as Ron House, writer of this hilarious and campy send-up, commands the stage as host of a variety show so comically bad that he will keep you laughing hysterically from start to finish.
