  • Nelson Diaz-Marcano: FUEL

    A play of raw and deep reflection. Caridad's work here is simple but in your face, a snap shot of an America we all are cautious about.

  • Nelson Diaz-Marcano: Our Dear Dead Drug Lord

    I just caught a reading of this play, and holy,,,! This is a fast paced, often hilarious, always exciting exploration of America today through the eyes of the generation growing after 9/11. Alexis has created something unique here, and if you have a chance to read/ see it, you need to.

  • Nelson Diaz-Marcano: Shoe

    A powerful study about the importance of family in latinx culture and the rift that individualism creates within it. It is a painful but often hopeful story with an ending that will leave a bittersweet taste in your mouth while you question your own choices in life.

  • Nelson Diaz-Marcano: FLY, BABY

    This play made me smile. Smile like not many pieces of entertainment does. Smiles like when I was a kid and it was Christmas day. I'm not kidding! i could say more, or put more eloquent words together, but I think you should you just experience it without much knowledge of it. It's pure joy!

  • Nelson Diaz-Marcano: REBELS TIL DEATH

    This play explores the pain we carry and the burden we are left with in such a raw and bold way that it can only be a Femia play. These characters speak our languages till they can't. Till the exposition kills the laughter, till we are left with only real life to deal with. What do you do when your rebellion is born out wanting to be seen? Put this one as another great work by this writer.

  • Nelson Diaz-Marcano: Scissoring

    A great study about the relationship between sexuality and religion within LGBTQ members. Quintana has created a timely work which give us strong representations and touches on topics that need to be discussed. I was lucky to see a production of this play, and I can't wait for Quintana's next work.

  • Nelson Diaz-Marcano: Rugburn

    What a terrifyingly funny play! Weaver has a knack to play with our emotions in the most hilarious ways possible. I know a couple of people that would have nightmares after seeing this piece!

  • Nelson Diaz-Marcano: POP POP WAS A WAR HERO

    This play felt like a smooth jazz song that helps you reflect about life while taking you away with its composition. An easy yet powerful short play.

  • Nelson Diaz-Marcano: INCREDIBLY CUTE

    What a delightful idea! In Carnes hands, this idea takes form and becomes a fantastic satire that forces us to imagine a word in where devices are alive. The same way we seen plays take the POV of animals, or certain tools, "Incredibly Cute" gives life to our computers and explores the knowledge they have of us. By doing this Carnes can study the character further and gives us a more private glimpse of his life, without the human actually speaking. A great insight on how much we leave of ourselves in our technology.
