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, performance or similarly artistic gigs and/or recognition in the media. The names of HOLA members and Friends of HOLA are listed below in boldface. To see what other HOLA members are doing currently, click here.

Idalmis García, shown at right, will be acting in the Woodshed Collective's Empire Travel Agency. An interactive series of site-specific performance events ("trips") set at various locations across New York City. Directed by Teddy Bergman and Mikhael Tara Graver, the production will have performances in September and boasts design from six different designers and original text by ten different writers.
