An action packed play that I can not wait to see fully staged. Diaz-Marcano does a great job of familiarizing the audience with the myths and folk tales in this play without dumbing anything down for readers like me that are not fluent in Spanish or familiar with Puerto Rican history. The way gender and sexuality is explored here is so compelling. It's a love letter to Puerto Rico, a reflection on history and a beautiful fable all wrapped up into one moving piece of theatre.
