BIO:
Caridad De La Luz is a Bronx-born performer known as LA BRUJA who
performed in the successful Off-Broadway musical I LIKE IT LIKE THAT
as China Rodriguez. She is considered one of America's leading spoken
word poets and was named one of the Top 20 Puerto Rican Women Everyone
Should Know. Caridad was also awarded the Puerto Rican Women Legacy
Award, The Edgar Allan Poe Award for excellence in writing from The
Bronx Historical Society and has been titled a Bronx Living Legend
along with a Citation of Merit by the Bronx Borough President. She
has performed in venues such as The Apollo, Lincoln Center and in
venues internationally over her 21-year trajectory since her debut
performance in the famed Nuyorican Poets Café in 1996. N.Y. Times
called her "a Juggernaut" after the run of her musical Boogie Rican
Blvd., and she was awarded Best Musical with Pregones and their 2015
production of Betsy where she played the title role. Her acting
career has taken her from the stage to film: appearing in numerous
movies including Bamboozled, Down to the Bone, El Vacilon de la Mañana
and Gun Hill Road. She crossed over as a recording artist with her
Latin Hip Hop albums "Brujalicious" and “For Witch It Stands” which
are both on Spotify and iTunes. Her poetry is featured on Prince
Royce’s award-winning album "Phase II" and she became most known for
her captivating performance on Russell Simmons' HBO Def Poetry Jam.
As a teaching artist, Caridad has worked throughout the country
facilitating poetry and performance workshops for countless aspiring
writers of all ages. Caridad is a chartering member of the Delta
