Sixth & I
“This is genuinely impressive musical storytelling, backed up by bona fide vocal training.” – Broadway World
Husband and wife duo Jaime Lozano and Florencia Cuenca create musical magic with Broadway en Spanglish. A fusion of their Mexican roots with their journey to the American Dream, this multi-lingual musical cabaret features fresh interpretations and new arrangements of contemporary musical theater songs from Hamilton, Waitress, Frozen, and more. Lozano is a musical theater storyteller considered by Lin-Manuel Miranda as the “next big thing” on Broadway. Cuenca has performed Off-Broadway in Children of Salt (NYMF 2016 Best of Fest) and A Never-Ending, and named Best New Jazz Artist by Hot House Jazz (2016). The two have performed to sold-out crowds at venues such as Joe’s Pub, 54 Below, and Lincoln Center’s American Songbook Series. Stirring mariachi music, humorous stories, and Cuenca’s rousing vocals make for a memorable night celebrating cultural diversity.
Program Details
You’ll hear songs from Broadway shows such as Hamilton, Waitress, Disney’s Frozen, and others, along with exciting new arrangements by Lozano.
“Florencia Cuenca’s soaring Spanglish cover of ‘Burn’ is one of my favorite renditions of the song. She has that lagrima in her voice, and it is perfect for conveying Eliza’s heartbreak.”
– Lin-Manuel Miranda
