In 1993, Estrada played the title role in the national touring production of "Tom Thumb in Toyland". In 1997, he returned to San Antonio's Jump-Start Theatre to perform in "Milagritos" by Sandra Cisneros and in Alicia Mena's "There Comes a Time". Of the latter production, Dan R. Goddard of the San Antonio Express-News wrote, "But Estrada gives the best comic performance as poor, put-upon Peter, who allows himself to be overwhelmed by Ceci's fantasies - though it starts to wear thin after his 50th attempt to sing like Pedro Infante even though he's tone deaf."
