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.
2015 HOLA Awards recipient Sebastian Stimman and Edna Lee Figueroa, shown, in character, at right, from left to right, were profiled in the Héctor Luis Sin Censura blog (written by 2015 HOLA Awards recipient Héctor Luis Rivera), where they were highlighted for their roles in the upcoming production Julián and Romero. Written and directed by Alex Pérez, the play stars Stimman and Figueroa (and features choreography by Stimman) and is being presented in August as part of the New York International Fringe Festival (fringeNYC) at the Flamboyán Theater in the Clemente Soto Vélez Cultural and Educational Center (home to HOLA).
