Sancocho NYC Reviews and Tickets

See it if See it if you love great plays about breaking generational traumas, if you love good food, and if you love great acting and storytelling.

Don't see it if you haven't eaten dinner - cause they cook real food and you'll be hungry the whole play lol.

See it if You like deep yet fast paced convos full of emotion & real talk, aren't afraid of getting down to the issues unite and divide all families.

Don't see it if You don't understand how complicated relationships between multigenerational families work. If you are here for mindless entertainment.

See it if You want to feel completely engaged the entire show; if you love family dynamics; if you love Puerto Rican culture or want to learn

Don't see it if Some material might be slightly triggering (talk of family abuse, molestation) but it was handled with such dignity and grace and realness.

See it if you love stories by women about women and you like dramatic reveals. a great comedic piece played by two incredible actors.

Don't see it if It's a slow story build to invest you in the characters - skip if you don't like deep development.

See it if You want to hear two women discuss/fight while they cook and anticipate a death. Agonizingly slow till an hour in. Real cooking helps.

Don't see it if You’re hoping for any real action. This is just a long conversation that depends on you caring about the characters and doubtful you will. Read more

See it if to support Latino theater. If you don't mind a show that feels like a work in progress. Enjoy a slow burn about family secrets.

Don't see it if you don't speak Spanish or are bothered by untranslated dialogue. Feels too long and could be cut. With some work this could be better. Read more
