On Friday night, September 21, UGT is bringing soul back to The Linda, but this time with a Latin twist. This month the artists of Urban Guerilla Theatre are celebrating Latin heritage, music, performance, and of course, soul. And for this event there will be a very special featured performance by none other than Def Poet “La Bruja” Caridad De La Luz.

La Bruja is a poet, writer, actress, recording artist, and activist from the Bronx. In her career she has worked some of the biggest names in entertainment and has been a big part of community and cultural activism nationwide.

La Bruja will be joined on stage with an amazing lineup of poets, musicians, and spoken word artists including Sibie Roxx, Carlos Garcia, Kat SoPoetic, Jess Listentomywordz, Luis “L-Majesty” Pabon, Rudy Cabrera, Johnathan Lajas, Daniela Watson, Carlos Gaston, Melissa Noemi, and more.

This special edition of UGT is starting at 8:00PM. You can purchase your tickets through The Linda’s website for $10 in advance or you can buy them at the door for $15.
