Dulcé Sloan
Dulcé Sloan
Dulcé Sloan is one of the sharpest, fastest rising voices in comedy. *Bust Magazine* calls her “comedy gold” while *Indiewire* describes her as “a fresh and unique voice in the world of stand-up comedy.” She was included in *Variety Magazine*’s prestigious *Top 10 Comedians To Watch* list, and *SLiNK Magazine* just crowned her “The New Queen of Comedy.” *Rolling Stone* recently hailed her as one of the *10 Comedians You Need To Know* declaring “she speaks and they simply fall in line behind her.” Dulcé has been a correspondent on *The Daily Show with Trevor Noah* since 2017. Her segments, including “9-1-1 For White People Emergencies” and “Dumb Solutions to Policing Problems” have garnered millions of views. This November, she starred alongside Malin Akerman, Alec Baldwin, and Bella Thorne in the action-comedy feature film *Chick Fight*, with *The Hollywood* Reporter declaring “Dulcé Sloan…not just steal(s) the movie but make(s) sure that no one else even comes close.” Additionally, Dulcé launched her podcast *That Black Ass Show* on Starburns Audio in April 2020. Every Wednesday, Sloan talks to special guests to celebrate some of America’s iconic black shows that have and continue to shape the world. From 90’s classics like the *Fresh Prince of Bel Air* and *Martin*, to modern shows like *Insecure* and *Atlanta*, Sloan does a deep dive into the show’s origin, classic moments and fun facts that everyone can enjoy. In October 2019, Dulcé’s *Comedy Central Presents* stand-up special premiered on Comedy Central. *The New York Times* included the half hour in their “Best Comedy of 2019” roundup. She will also be seen in the cast of the upcoming animated FOX series *The Great North,* joining an ensemble of comedy heavyweights including Jenny Slate, Nick Offerman, Megan Mullally, and Paul Rust. The series, from the creators of FOX’s hit animated show *Bob’s Burgers*, will premiere in 2021 and has already been picked up for a second season. Dulcé has “a voice that doesn’t pander or bully but comes at you straight. With a chaser of Joy,” according to Ozy.com. She offers a fresh and honest perspective that speaks truth to power and eviscerates the status quo. She can currently be seen in OWN’s four-part series *Black Women Own the Conversation*, in which the world sees black women coming to together to talk about the issues that are important to them. In addition to *The Daily Show*, she has made multiple appearances as a correspondent on “E! News Daily.” She has also been featured on several comedy fan-favorite TV series including Comedy Central’s *This Week at the Comedy Cellar*, TBS’ *Conan*, Amazon Studios’ *Inside Jokes*, TruTV’s *Comedy Knockout*, and MTV’s *Acting Out*. She was also a cast member on the FOX pilot *Type-A* opposite Eva Longoria and the Amy Poehler project *Dumb Prince* for NBC. Dulcé is a favorite on the comedy festival circuit, with appearances at *The Edinburgh Fringe Festival*, *The Melbourne Comedy Festival*, and the Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver installments of the *Just For Laughs Festival*.

AGUARDIENTE - World Premiere Musical!
AGUARDIENTE - World Premiere Musical!
Join us for the world premiere of the musical ***Aguardiente: Where Magic Transcends Borders,*** commissioned by GALA and conceived by Helen Hayes multi-award winner Luis Salgado from Puerto Rico and Colombian artist Daniel Alejandro Gutiérrez. Blending Afro-Caribbean rhythms such as bomba, currulao, and cumbia, and Gabriel García Márquez’s magical realism, Aguardiente is a bold new musical about the messy, urgent act of making art in a world on fire. As a group of artists race to finish a new show, their rehearsal room becomes a battleground of ideas, ambition, and lived experience—especially for a composer whose undocumented status makes the dream of success anything but simple. As the team wrestles with what story they should tell, the line between reality and imagination begins to blur, until—like two currents meeting in the same river—the artists’ own struggles spill into the story they are creating: a vibrant tale set in a river town on the brink of environmental collapse, where two young lovers must decide whether to stay and fight for their homeland or leave in pursuit of a dream, making Aguardiente a theatrical journey about migration, memory, and the complicated act of transforming real lives into art. **PERFORMANCES:** ***Aguardiente*** is a bilingual production with surtitles in English and Spanish, and runs April 30 through May 24, 2026. Performances are Thursdays through Saturdays at 8 pm and Sundays at 2 pm. The show is approximately 160 minutes long and includes one intermission. Community Night is Thursday, April 30. Noche de GALA, which includes a post-performance reception with the cast and creative team, is Saturday, May 2, under the honorary patronage of His Excellency Daniel García-Peña Jaramillo, Ambassador of Colombia to the U.S. **TICKETS:** Regular tickets for ***Aguardiente*** are $60 Premium, $55 Orchestra Standard, $45 Orchestra Value, and $35 Balcony Value; $35 Seniors (65+), Military, Teachers, and Groups (10+); $25 25 and Under; Community Night tickets are $25 each and Noche de GALA: Chosen ticket price + $5 (per person). **[GET TICKETS HERE](https://ci.ovationtix.com/35923/production/1245626)** **CAST:** ***Aguardiente: Where Magic Transcends Borders*** features an 18-people multicultural cast that includes Samuel Garnica (Venezuela) as Alberto, Sebastián Treviño (Colombia and Mexico) as Alejandro, Vin Ramos (Puerto Rico) as Azuquita, Ana Luisa Martínez (Mexico) as Anís, Shayla Hernández (Puerto Rico) as Kiara, Emy Ramos (Dominican Republic and United States) as Beta, Eric González (Spain) as Eve, Machirán (Cuba) as Pepe/MC, and Leanna “Leah” Finol (Venezuela and Hungary) as Mamá/Mom.

Gutiérrez, and lyrics by both Salgado and Gutiérrez. Scenic Design is by Clifton Chadick, Lighting Design is by Colin Bills, Projections Design is by Milton Cordero, and Madeline “Mo” Oslejsek is Sound Designer.
