Theater video journalist Roberto Araujo has been named senior producer of “THEATER: All the Moving Parts,” Patrick Pacheco’s theater conversation series. Araujo began his duties on Jan. 26, replacing the program’s former producer, Juan Torres-Falcon.
Araujo comes to the CUNY TV program from Spectrum News NY1, where he served for three years as producer and theater journalist for “On Stage,” and previously Playbill, where he was the director of video production. In his new role, he oversees production and editorial development for Pacheco’s program, which is now in its seventh year.
“Roberto Araujo brings an invaluable wealth of experience and wisdom about the arts,” Pacheco shared in a statement. “His work reflects his passionate regard for theater and the importance of sharing with the public its central role in America’s cultural life.”
A native of Mexico City, Araujo is a three-time New York Emmy Award winner. In 2025 alone, the “On Stage” programs that Araujo produced were nominated for nine New York Emmys, winning two. Araujo is also a performer. In 2000, he voiced the title role in the Spanish-language version of Dreamworks’ animated feature “Joseph: King of Dreams.”
A 2018 New York Emmy winner himself, Pacheco began “THEATER: All the Moving Parts” in March 2019 with a mission of “looking beyond the spotlight at the passionate and unheralded creative talents that are critical to the theatrical experience.” Originally filmed at Chez Josephine on 42nd Street, early episodes featured Pacheco and a guest chatting over a couple glasses of wine. During the pandemic, the show’s format shifted to Zoom, before returning in September 2021 to in-person conversations on a CUNY TV set. Guests have included designers, actors, understudies, orchestrators, dramaturgs and journalists (including Broadway News executive editor Ruthie Fierberg).
Pacheco also cowrote the book of the stage musical adaptation of the 1945 film “Christmas in Connecticut” and collaborated with Chita Rivera on her book, “Chita: A Memoir.”
“THEATER: All the Moving Parts” airs online on CUNY TV’s YouTube channel, as well as on channel 25.3 in the five boroughs of New York City, on Spectrum and Optimum’s channel 75, RCN’s channel 77, Verizon FiOS’ channel 30 and the CUNY TV app.
