Award-Winning LA REINA YOLANDA Comes to United Solo
The greatest journeys are ones in our own mind. Follow Yolanda, a fierce Puerto Rican woman, from childhood to old age as she confronts multiple obstacles, culminating with Alzheimer's disease. A personal, emotional voyage voiced by the daughter who experienced it. When who we are begins to disappear piece by piece, how do we hold on to what defines us?
Leesa Castaneda, attended the American Academy of Dramatic Arts and is a member of SAG/AFTRA. She has performed in theatre, film and television for the past 25 years.
