La Gringa

  • Fort Lauderdale, FL (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Carmen Rivera's La Gringa is a poignant comedy about a young woman’s search for identity. Maria Elena Garcia visits her family in Puerto Rico during the Christmas holidays and plans to connect with her homeland. Although this is her first trip to Puerto Rico, she has an intense love for the island. She even majored in Puerto Rican studies in college. Once Maria is in Puerto Rico, she realizes that Puerto Rico does not welcome her with open arms. The majority of Puerto Ricans on the island consider her an American — a gringa — and Maria considers this a betrayal. If she’s a Puerto Rican in the United States and an American in Puerto Rico, Maria concludes that she is nobody everywhere. Her uncle, Manolo, teaches her that identity isn’t based on superficial and external definitions, but is an essence she has had all along in her heart.

City Theatre's production is presented in English with Spanish supertitles.

La Gringa is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French Inc.

Starring Stephanie Vazquez. Directed by Gladys Ramirez. Intimacy Direction by Nicole Perry.

Refuge

Original music, artistic puppetry, and magical realism allow this bilingual tale to tackle the immigration crisis through a beautiful, unique lens. Chronicling the harrowing journey of one young Honduran girl as she crosses the US border into the inhospitable, barren land of Texas, Refuge is an exploration of empathy and of America – who we are and who we say we are.

After joining us for the 2020 New Play Festival, this incredible play with music finally returns to The Lab. Working in conjunction with our partner companies across the country (Curious Theatre in Denver, CO & Unicorn Theatre in Kansas City, MO), we are thrilled to complete our season of world premieres with the final installment of this National New Play Network Rolling World Premiere!
