Doña Rosita’s Jalapeño Kitchen

Doña Rosita’s Jalapeño Kitchen is a deliciously comic and deeply poignant portrait of Latino life and cultural pride. This one woman show has delighted audiences nationwide. Doña Rosita, played by actress, soloist and comedienne Ruby Nelda Perez, invites the audience to sit and enjoy the “Last Supper” in her barrio. With generous servings of one flavorful character after another, no one ever leaves Señora Rosita’s kitchen unsatisfied. While Doña Rosita contemplates selling her restaurant of 23 years to make way for a brand new shopping mall, she reminisces about her family and friends, as well as a few strangers who have all enjoyed her company and cuisine from her famous kitchen.
