As the centenary of the influential composer Tite Curet Alonso is about to be celebrated the award-winning actor and playwright Josean Ortiz brings his story to life in the moving monologue “Tite Curet Alonso: Lyric and Poetry.” The anecdotal piece inspired by the book of the same name by folklorist Norma Salazar traces the cultural legacy of one of the greatest composers of bolero and salsa in the 20th century in Latin America of Puerto Rican origin. With an acting record as intense as its history is diverse Ortiz has stood out for bringing illustrious figures of the black race to the stage through pieces he has authored. In addition he has established a name for himself in New York theater as an actor director and producer.

A punto de celebrarse el centenario del influyente compositor Tite Curet Alonso el premiado actor y dramaturgo Josean Ortiz trae a la vida su historia en “Tite Curet Alonso: Lírica y Poesía”. La pieza anecdótica inspirada en el libro del mismo nombre de la folclorista Norma Salazar recorre el legado cultural de uno de los más grandes compositores del bolero y la salsa del siglo en Latinoamérica pero de cuna borincana. Con una agenda actoral tan intensa como diversa en su historial Ortiz se ha destacado por llevar a los escenarios a personajes ilustres de la raza negra a través de piezas de su autoría. Además se ha consolidado en el teatro neoyorquino como actor director y productor.
