ABOUT THE SHOW:
Manny, a young gay Puerto Rican reggaetonero, is on the brink of his biggest career breakthrough. But over one unforgettable night in a Miami club, family, ambition, identity, loyalty, and the music industry collide. As superstardom comes into view, Manny is forced to confront what—and who—he may have to sacrifice to reach it. 🌟

We are beyond excited and incredibly proud to announce the playwrights selected for BLOOM, Visión Latino Theatre Company’s new works initiative!

The selection process was not easy. We had the honor of reading so many powerful, imaginative, and moving plays, and we are deeply grateful to every playwright who shared their work with us.

After much thought and conversation, we are thrilled to welcome:

✨ Nelson A. Rodriguez @nelstar_rodriguez
✨ Baylee Schlichtman @bshlichtman

These two plays represent the heart of what Visión Latino is all about bold storytelling, new perspectives, and stories that challenge, celebrate, and reflect the many experiences of our communities.

We cannot wait for you to meet these playwrights and experience their work.

Congratulations, Nelson and Baylee! 🌸❤️
