The Wedding March

A beloved classic from Pregones/PRTT’s original musical theater repertory, The Wedding March is a lyrical performance on womanhood, memory, and cultural identity. Framed by two tuxedoed male figures, a Puerto Rican woman reclaims the haunting, humorous, and formative tales passed down by generations of women before her. It’s a moving journey across Puerto Rico and New York, heritage, and transformation. Singular and evocative stories of universal appeal and undeniable theatrical verve! 

The 2026 restaging of The Wedding March is adapted by Rosalba Rolón and directed by Rosal Colón with musical direction by Desmar Guevara.

The Wedding March is an authorized adaptation of Judith Ortiz Cofer’s acclaimed Silent Dancing: A Partial Remembrance of a Puerto Rican Childhood, first premiered in 1991 with creative development and direction by Rosalba Rolón. Guided by two figures representing dual facets of manhood and memory, a woman revisits stories told by the other women of her family. Through poetry, music, and vibrant storytelling, she questions the ideals of romance and femininity passed down to her, navigating life between the island and The Bronx. Her voice is passionate, bold, and full of wit. The play invites us into her inner world, where love, heritage, and identity converge.
