“ Beautifully theatrical in its use of flexible time and space, powerful double-casting of certain characters, potent moments of audio and visual stimulation that heighten and help tell the story, and well-executed narration by a figure whose emotional stakes in the story become clear in a revealing and dynamic way. The narrative is consistently compelling and manages to interview the personal, political, and historical seamlessly. Gripping and begs to be seen live! ”

“ A page turning, enlightening insight on the pains and troubles of Puerto Rico, what it means to be from a country fighting to hold it's identity in the shadow of western ideal and capitalism. Great writing of history without the feeling of a lecture. ”

“ An ambitious drama of historic scope covering significant chapters in Puerto Rico's fight for independence and its relationship with the US mainland. It's never a dense history lesson. A critical and intimate character study of both an island and its hero. A fearless docudrama that looks to the past - and at the inequities faced by islanders deemed as savages - while forcing us to consider the present: the US government's racist relationship with the island after the natural disaster. Highly-theatrical. Diaz-Marcano commands attention from page one. A playwright to keep on your radar. A play that needs your attention! ”
