THE RED ROSE pays tribute to Afro/Black Puerto Rican writer and activist Jesús Colón. Arriving in New York City as a stowaway youth in the winter of 1917, Colón went on to become a popular chronicler of the Puerto Rican migrant experience and one of its enduring icons. The production narrates his fateful meeting with undercover FBI agent Mildred Blauvelt, and their subsequent face-off before the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) in 1959.
“Absolutely love this little gem of a theater, I’ve seen many shows there. We are so grateful for a place like this allowing artists to explore their craft and share with the public. I was glad to be back for their first in-person show”
“Terrific show! I highly recommend seeing them. I felt welcomed, safe, and enjoyed the entire experience.”
“It’s my home away from home, because of the genuineness and complete dedication that is given to everyone that walks through their doors. I have an abundance of love for everyone that works at Pregones. Please, go to Pregones Theatre, and you will be inspired to come back for another dose of inspiration.”
