Rosa Luisa Márquez (Pueto Rico)




Rosa Luisa Márquez

Theatre fascinated me in a very special way. I was afraid the actors would transgress the fourth wall and join the audience. Once, they actually did and scared me half to death. I was captivated by the mystery contained inside the picture frame. From that time on, it seems The Theatre chose me. At least that is what I wish to remember.
