Emerging Playwrights Project
The Emerging Playwrights Project provides professional and creative mentorship. The program will focus on turning writers into Writer/Producers who can meet the challenges of mounting a production while forging strong collaborations with directors, theatre companies, actors, and technicians.
Music. Poetry. Theatre.
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.
“The Flamboyán is a tree beloved throughout Latin America, and was chosen as the symbol for our company as it represents Pan-Latino identity that unites the cultural diversity of the Americas under one canopy.” - Jon Marcantoni, Founder
