	Ford Foundation: Hispanic Theater in the United States and Puerto Rico - 2
		Though Hispanic theater in the United States represents all of these diverse cultures, the majority of its artists are of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, and more recently, Central American backgrounds.
		The Mexican presence in the United States is the longest and most complex of all the Hispanic groups, dating back to pre-Columbian times.
		That land, which comprised half of the Mexican nation and is now more than one-third of the continental United States, was lost under the terms of the Guadalupe-Hidalgo Treaty in 1848 after Mexico's defeat in the Mexican-American War.

	About The Pabst Theater
		The theater was extensively renovated in 1928, then restored to its original style in 1976, making it one of the most beautiful theaters in the United States.

		Today, The Pabst Theater is the centerpiece of Milwaukee’s downtown theater district...a magnificent example of architecture of another time and era that serves performers and audiences of the 21st century as it did at the turn of the 20th century.
