Jaime Lozano Takes The Lucille Lortel With The Familia With A One Night Only Concert

Jaime Lozano is taking the Lucille Lortel stage with a concert full of stories and songs featuring his "Familia," an all-Latinx/Latino/Latine lineup of the best Broadway and Off-Broadway performers including Mauricio Martínez (On Your Feet!), Florencia Cuenca (A Never-Ending Line), Marina Pires (On Your Feet!), and Cedric Leiba, Jr. (Carmen La Cubana); and also an all Latinx band formed by Ruben Rodríguez (bass), Jhoely Garay (guitar) and Joel Mateo (drums).

In his engaging signature style, the concert addresses the meaningful theme of the immigrant experience in the United States through stories and songs, about finding a new home, learning a new language, trying to fit in, pursuing the American dream, missing their native land and what it means to celebrate Navidad as an immigrant in a new country, created in collaboration with some of the most exciting musical theater writers of today - Neena Beber, Georgie Castilla, Nancy Cheser, Michael Cooper, Florencia Cuenca, David Davila, Mark-Eugene Garcia, Marina Pires, and Noemi de la Puente - and featuring favorites from his album Jaime Lozano & The Familia: Songs by an Immigrant, released digitally by Broadway Records in October 2020.
