HOLA Member Bochinche

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

José Roldán, Jr., shown at right, won the Best in Social Media Award at the 2012 United Solo Festival for having "the most talked about show on Facebook and Twitter" for his sold out self-penned solo show Father Forgive Me For I Have Sinned (directed by Dante Albertie). Also receiving an honor was John Leguizamo (the festival's highest honor, the uAward). For more information, click here or here.

Rodney Roldán booked roles on episodes of "Elementary" (CBS) and "The Big C" (Showtime).


Susana Pérez, shown at left, was cast in a workshop presentation of the William Youmans play Everybody Does It. She booked the role after reading about the casting notice in the e-mail announcements that HOLA sends out to its members and self-submitting.

Nanda Abella and Nadia Serantes starred in the Michael Martínez short film Esperanza. The film was recently screened at the Big Apple Film Festival at the Tribeca Cinemas in the (natch) Tribeca neighborhood of Manhattan. For more information, click here.

Gabriel Sloyer recorded the audiobook Small Miracles by Edward M. Lerner (Tor Books/MacMillan) for Out Loud Audio.

Jeannie Sol will headline the Jeannie Sol X-Mas Cabaret on Saturday, December 22, 2012 at Teatro LATEA, located in the Clemente Soto Vélez Cultural and Educational Center (home to HOLA) in Manhattan's Loísaida neighborhood
. Other performers include Anthony Ruiz; Claudio Marcel Weisz; 2012 HOLA Award recipient Andrés Chulisi Rodríguez; J. Bu; Janderie Gutiérrez; Richard Pryor, Jr.; Harmonica Sunbeam and Purple Pam. For more information, click here.

Teatro LATEA co-founders Nelson Landrieu and Mateo Gómez, pictured speaking at right, from left to right, received a 2012 Borimix Award for also being co-founders of the Clemente Soto Vélez Cultural and Educational Center from Teatro SEA at the kickoff event of the Borimix Puerto Rico Fest. The festival took place at the Clemente Soto Vélez Cultural and Educational Center (home to HOLA, Teatro LATEA and Teatro SEA, respectively) in Manhattan's Loísaida neighborhood.
