La Gringa is a theatre production. In collaboration with Bridgeport Caribe Youth Leaders, WPKN presents the longest-running off-broadway Spanish play by playwright Carmen Rivera about a woman born in NYC who travels to Puerto Rico for the first time to meet her family and to discover her roots. Her misconceptions are transformed and she learns that being Puerto Rican is a matter of heart and spirit. “La Gringa has complicated misperceptions that develop on all sides unfold in comic dialogue that arouses constant shouts of laughter and bursts of applause.” – The New York Times
