"Nuyorican show spices up Off-Broadway!"

*BACK  STAGE*
"Overflowing with colorful
detail and smartly observed anecdotes,
this one man show is an affectionate, 
funny, and spicily authentic collage of growing
up Puerto Rican in the Bronx of the 1970s."
-Ron Cohen

*The Nuyorican Poet's Cafe*
"Brilliant"
-Miguel Algarin

*NEW YORK TIMES*
"...Pretty funny!"
- Katherine Rampell

    *Broadway World.com*
"The play is a bittersweet comedy of two brothers growing up in the Puerto Rican section of the Bronx, whose coming of age is marked by the untimely death of their father. One actor plays both parts. The play is filled with the hearty characters, flavors and textures of The Bronx in the 70's and displays a very witty understanding of life". 

  *Show Business Weekly*
"Rojas employs an ingenious framing device to  ensure that the evening feels  like a full length  narrative rather than a collection of  short  stories".
-Ethan kanfer


*THE PUERTO RICAN
TRAVELING THEATER*
"ELECTRIFYING"
-Miriam Colon
