Luis has earned a range of accomplishments in many of life’s great opportunities.  While his resume is diverse, the base expression is the same. Being creative, producing sustainable results that make a difference empowering people.  

In 2010 he became a full-time single father, with two daughters and step-son.  At that point, he decided to focus 100% on parenting and took a hiatus from comedy performing.

During this time, he authored six books on Professional Parenting, including “I AM a Professional Parent” which established a new context for parents raising “fully functioning, self-determining” children.  His show, "DO OVER" is Luis' return to the comedy stage.

“Doing life over every hour is a must for successful parenting. Finding the comedy to Do Over it over every minute is must for living.” 
- Luis Moro

Luis was Nominated Best Actor at The American Black Film Festival for his role as Alberto in the history making film "Love & Suicide".  He also received Independent Spirit Award nominations for his writing and producing the multiple award winning film "Anne B. Real".  Luis is also co-writer of the three main Hip-Hop lyrics and diary entries performed by the lead character of Cynthia.

Luis acclaimed films include "The Unseen", a drama shot in Atlanta Georgia. The history making romance, "Cuba’s Love and Suicide", set in Havana, Cuba and New York plus the comedy "Venus & Vegas", shot in Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
Luis is the co-producer on two award winning films, "Roll With me", currently winning awards in the film festival circuit; and "Where We Begin", which garnered many national and international awards.  His current slate of films ranges from the true Native American story "Whispers Like Thunder" to the comedy "The God Brother".  

He began his writing career while in the real estate mortgage business by creating, writing and hosting the first ever Latin-American real estate and travel television show "Real Estate America" which aired on Univision.

Luis is a graduate of Rutgers University, where he lettered and received NCAA award for football.   He can be seen in small acting roles in various film, including "Siege", the (1998) "King of the Ants" and his debut supporting role in "Cuba’s Love & Suicide".

His biggest accomplishment is creating entertainment content that empowers people and that make a difference to society.

"Cuba: Punto X" opens in NYC

Melu Communications Group and Latin Jazz USA Productions in association with OLLANTAY Center for the Arts proudly present the world premiere of the play "Cuba: Punto X" written and directed by renowned theatre and film professional Ivan Acosta.

About the Play
The play takes place in 2020. And the dictatorship of the Castro brothers is over. According to expert analysts, through the years the military communist regime in Cuba, created several secret spots that were extracted from the geography of the Cuban archipelago. One such site is the point X, somewhere near the Turquinoremote, in the east. At that point X, is in hiding, the former commander Eulalio and his assistant and lover, Yari. Both have spent several years in hiding, waiting to be rescued and smuggled out of the island. Commander Eulalio was notable for its abuses and violation of human rights of many citizens. Dozens of researchers supported by the International Commission for Human Rights, relentlessly pursue the fugitives, who are former members of the military apparatus, which distinguished themselves by their abuses and violations.

CUBA: POINT X, through its three characters, "Commander Eulalio", semi kidnapped girlfriend, "Yari", and the researcher, "Adrian", poses in fiction, a look of a future hypothetical situation in Cuba.

The play stars Alfonso Rey, Dalia Davi, and Lucio Fernandez. It is written and directed by Ivan Acosta; assistant director, Alexander Diaz; choreography by Alberto Morgan; production design by Jesus Rivera; original music by Alfredo Triff; sound design by Frank Rodriguez; and produced by Melu Communications Group and Latin Jazz USA Productions in association with OLLANTAY Center for the Arts.
