We are a performing arts theatre in Lakewood, Colorado, that focuses on uniting Puerto Ricans who share the love of music, poetry, theatre, and, most importantly, the place we call home, Puerto Rico.
Our home at The Three Leaches Theater in the 40 West Arts District hosts an art gallery, lounge, and 70 seat black box theatre that we envision as a home to Denver’s diverse communities and a hub for cultural celebration and exchange.

Current Projects
Puro Estilo
WORLD PREMIERE - La Lupe, icono musical cubano, muere y despierta en un purgatorio poblado por los orishas que abandonó cuando se convirtió al cristianismo. Enfrentada a los recuerdos de su vida y luchando con su identidad espiritual, La Lupe debe encontrar la paz con sus elecciones para que su alma sea libre.

El show estrenará el 18 de junio hasta el 28, 2025.
And You Will Be Ashes Too
WORLD PREMIERE - When their mother dies under mysterious circumstances, estranged sisters Evelyn and Liana must confront their old wounds and rivalries, which is exacerbated by the increasingly aggressive spirit who has taken over their mother’s house, Puerto Rican playwright Baylee Shlichtman developed this intense horror comedy with Flamboyán in 2024. The show will run Sept 17-27, 2025.
The Motherf***ker With the Hat
A co-production with our partners The Three Leaches, we are bringing Stephen Adly Guirgis’s cult classic to the stage! This dramedy about addiction, toxic love, and finding your moral compass will be presented in October 2025.
Our Mission
Flamboyán seeks to create a multi-platform arts space for Puerto Rican stories to be told and to support musicians, poets, and artisans using a community-based collaboration model.
