Raíces to Roots

❄️Déjame contarte sobre la leyenda del frío de Chicago
Si no lo hubiera vivido yo mismo, no lo creería
Es taaaan frío que ni el sol quiere asomarse por meses

Se conoce como la Cuidad de los Vientos,
Ese viento
Que sale de cualquier sitio
Para trepar y picar tu piel.

Ese viento recio
Ataca tu espina dorsal,
Tu dedos, tus ojos
Hasta penetrar lo mas profundo de tu alma.

Ese F***ing frío ❄️🥶

Yo…anyone ever tell you that Puerto Ricans are loud? 😏🗣️ Yeah, we loud- cuz we proud. And we loud about our rights, and the rights of our Latine, black, and brown brothers and sisters. WE LOUD and we refuse to be silenced. 🗣️🙌🏾🇵🇷

🌴🧳🌴 When your ancestors bring you a mysterious suitcase, what will you expect to unpack? Will you find home? Excited to share this unpacking with you all again at The Athenaeum Theater on 10/25.

❄️ Chicago es tan frío ❄️— a moment where memory meets the chill of winter and the warmth of home.

This stunning image by Puerto Rican artist Jacob Diaz captures the heart of Division Street in the snow — a glimpse of what’s to come in Unpacking Home, part of the Destinos: Chicago International Latino Theater Festival.

We will see you at our first show this Wednesday, 10/15 at Indiana University Northwest, and our sold out show on 10/25 at The Athenaeum Theater.
