A MUST SEE!! Las Garcia is a show that a generation of women really need. Tonight I sat in that theater, with a tint of sadness in my heart and left with inspiration and pride flowing through my veins. In a world where it is almost a crime to stand up and proclaim who you are with boldness in your voice and in your eyes, Las Garcia frees you of that burden and gives you permission to live with your head held high.

I left Las Garcia feeling good. I left feeling inspired. I left longing to know who my own grandmother was, who had passed before I even got to meet her.

This piece was beautiful, if I was half and open as honest as Gabriela is in her acting - I would have sobbed throughout the whole thing. It is honestly one of the most beautiful pieces I've seen in years, and want to relive the experience every day. I highly recommend this piece. ... full review

A thought-provoking one-woman show. It was a full house when I saw it, so make sure to get tickets in advance. Ortega effortlessly carries the evening. Fabulous... And prepare to have a certain song stuck in your head on the way out of the theatre! ;)... full review
