Bring LOVE IN THE TIME OF PIÑATAS to NYC

BIG NEWS!

Baruch Porras Hernandez's acclaimed solo show LOVE IN THE TIME OF PIÑATAS has been selected to be part of New York City Fringe, SPRING 2025!

ABOUT THE PLAY

Join the writer, comedian, and solo performer Baruch Porras Hernandez as he breaks open his life and lets all the candy fall out. Watch him wrestle with immigrant guilt, make out with it a little, and transform it into a wickedly funny and moving show that asks, “what’s at the end of the Mexican immigrant road?” Baruch hopes it’s donuts.

Using poetry, stand-up comedy, and sweaty go-go dance vibes, Baruch serves up everything from Rainbow Brite realness to Frida Kahlo glitter magic along the way.

Grab your party hat and get ready for a show that pushes past the stereotypes to bring you a unique story of a Queer Latino and his family struggling to thrive in America.

DEVELOPMENT

Baruch has been developing this play with some wonderful companies like Brava Theater, Portland Center Stage, Berkeley Rep, and now NY Fringe! This next step will be a pivotal one for its development journey and allowing the play to have an extended life.
