“The Raices Theatre ensemble knows it has something special for its audience.”
“The energy is contagious”
“The music – whether salsa, merengue, rap or a wedding tango – ties the nine one-acts into a fluid production. Each new scene arrives as smoothly as the turning of a page, our characters taking us from childhood fears to adult anxiety, embracing traditions and defying social expectations.”
“The eight-member cast performs together like they have lived in the same room for a month, switching roles with the slightest change of accessory and daring us to keep up.”
“Rolando E. Gomez adds something special to every scene he is in.”
“Maria Perez-Gomez… gets stage time as a grounding force in several of the pieces.”
“a remarkable example of how much actors can convey by their performances even if you don’t understand anything they are saying – we are looking at you, Smirna Mercedes.”

“the singing, acting, and overall energy will leave you either feeling proud that you are Latin or wishing you were.”
“there’s a special quality of “la familia” that this particularly tight ensemble exudes.”
“this musical edition reminded me again of how “romance” (whether translated as romantic love or high adventure) is so much more compelling in a romance language (e.g. French, Italian, or Spanish).”
