Monica Castillo Remezcla 02/25/2019
Somos Calentura's strength lies in its ability to capture the raw frustrations and unleashed energy in its characters' dance moves. The men's performances develop as the drama in their lives escalate. Go to Full Review Beverly Kwakye Black Girl Nerds 03/13/2019

'We are the Heat' delivers ethnic diversity and representation of an often overlooked Afro-Colombian community by focusing on the musical heritage that strengthened a broken community. Go to Full Review VyceVictus Lewton Bus 02/23/2019
4/5
