Bano de luna (Bathing in Moonlight) at GALA Hispanic Theatre

Washington Post - Highly Recommended

"...In GALA Hispanic Theatre's wistful "Baño de luna (Bathing in Moonlight)," it takes just moments for the protagonist's charisma - and the production's standout performance - to register. The protagonist is Padre Monroe, a caring and talented Catholic priest in 2015 Miami. The performance is by the marvelous Raúl Mendez, who infuses the character with magnetism and conflicted depth."

DC Theater Arts - Highly Recommended

"...Under Cruz's direction, the acting style of the thoroughly competent cast is one of consistently high emotional intensity. What really makes the play sing, though, is its excellent physical production. Clifton Chadick's set is based on a three-tier rectangle, the upper level of which is creased by an irregular fissure, suggesting a weakness, a break in the confines of the rectangles. On three sides, the platforms are surrounded by large rectangular screens on which Hailey Laroe's superb projections are displayed."
