Highlights from Broadway World‘s article of Alma

“touching, poignant, and very timely play”

“absorbing, impressively acted one-act play”

“helmed with palpable tender care by director Sara Guerrero”

“superb pair of actors”

“an intense and immersive environment that moves and stirs every person who bears witness”

“the two impressive actors are so convincingly real in their back-and-forth that seamlessly ease from love and care to animosity—sometimes within the same sentence—that it’s often hard to take your eyes off of their every move”

“Portillo and Echeverria displaying incredible performances throughout”

“Overall, the play is a deeply moving exploration of familial bonds, cultural identity, and the challenges faced by hopeful, aspirational immigrants in contemporary America, making it a compelling and thought-provoking play that resonates on multiple levels—especially the human one.”
