The Ricardo Montalbán Repertory Theatre Company presents Tim Groff's Virgin Love, a musical comedia set in the 1700s with a Latino twist. The addition of Latin music gives the production its special RMRTC flavor. Various Latin styles such as salsa, merengue, ranchero and even polka make for a lively juxtaposition with the 18th century costuming. Add to it swashbuckling swordplay and Virgin Love promises to be a real crowd pleaser.

I purchased two separate tickets to the play, I just like it and had an okay time, but my friiend did not like it that much, I have already sent in my own review, the following is his review and comments.

I did not enjoy the play, but I will give my two cents. It stated it contain partial nudity, mature adult content-I feel it is somewhat misleading about the part of the partial nudity, no doubt the play has mature adult content, but I would not necessary call it partial nudity where there is only had 2 cut out (small to medium size) circles on a man's rear pant partially showing the butt cheeks, partially because part of his custom cover the circles most of the time.

Even I did not enjoy the play, but some one might, and I hope this will not discourage and shy away people from going to the play because it is stated partial nudity and think that it is more then what it really is.

What happens when you add sexual innuendo to what is obviously a children's afternoon theatre??...the adults get bored and walk out at intermission. On the other hand, if you want to embarrass yourself by taking a date to see this show and display how poorly you choose your theatre, this is the show for you because you're going to be apologizing for the rest of the night. If LA Theatre is a box of chocolates and you never know what you're going to find, this dud is the throw away that should not be in the box in the first place.

The production values and cast were good. The humor was very broad which I can appreciate but I was disappointed that two gay characters were shown as such extreme caricatures. Even in a play full of over the top characters these so over the top that they made me cringe. Erica Gabrielle was a highlight as the virgin love interest.
