HOLA Member Bochinche

Bochinche refers to "gossip." In this sense, we use it to mention HOLA members who are getting acting and performance gigs. The names of HOLA members are in boldface.

Omar Pérez joins the cast of Luis Caballero's DC-7: The Roberto Clemente Story. Directed by Caballero, the Teatro SEA production is produced by Manuel A. Morán and choreographed by Luis Salgado. The actor joins Modesto Lacén, Lorraine Vélez, Josean Ortiz and Morán in the transfer to the off-Broadway house, The Puerto Rican Traveling Theatre, located in the theater district of midtown Manhattan for an open-ended run that starts in February. For more information on the show, click here or here.

Laura Riveros will be performing as F in the experimental theater piece Escalation in 9 Exegeses Performed by a Troupe of Exegetic Clowns. Written by Matt Reeck, it will be performed in February at Dixon Place, located in Manhattan's Loísaida neighborhood. For more information, click here. To buy tickets, click here.

Soledad del Río booked a voiceover with Ibero-American for a public service announcement that talks of the dangers of texting while driving.

Marina Durell started off the new year with a bang as she booked a national commercial for the pharmacy chain CVS.

Javier E. Gómez booked a role in the workshop production of Yes! The Musical. Written by Earl Wilson, Jr. and directed by Mercedes Ellington, the production will take place in March at the
Rose Nagelberg Theater at the Baruch Performing Arts Center, located in the Rose Hill neighborhood of Manhattan.

Luis Galli will play the role of Mariano in the film
Teresa, la novia del Libertador. The joint Cuban-Peruvian production will be helmed by Rocío Llado (whose last film Vidas paralelas was a huge hit on the worldwide film festival circuit). The suspense thriller will begin filming in March 2012.
