Starring: Angel Vázquez

A funny and touching tale of discovery and pride, a student prepares to graduate and leave Puerto Rico to escape the economic crisis.  As he arranges to leave, the young man unearths his cultural roots through the lives of such noted men and women in the island’s history as José de Diego, Julia de Burgos, Eugenio María de Hostos, and Roberto Clemente, among others.  With great comic flair, Vázquez reveals both the promise and the pain of migration to the mainland from the island.  For ticket and more information, click here.
