Andréa Burns in “GENERATION POR QUÉ?” now streaming on HBO Max

“HBO has acquired “Generation Por Qué?,” a comedic Cuban American short inspired by and starring writer and producer Jacqueline “Jackie” Pereda. The coming-of-age story follows Jackie Pérez, a first-generation woman pursuing her acting dreams in New York City while enduring her very Cuban (and conservative) New Jersey-based parents [Andréa Burns]. She can chase her dreams along with her other first-gen friends, but she cannot outrun her upbringing.” - Variety

Andréa Burns stars in Theresa Rebeck’s Bad Dates at George Street Playhouse

 
 

Theater to Stream: ‘Bad Dates’

A good rule of thumb: Whenever the wonderful Andréa Burns (“In the Heights,” “On Your Feet!”) pops up in something, just check it out. In this case it’s Theresa Rebeck’s one-woman play “Bad Dates,” presented by the George Street Playhouse in New Jersey, which should provide good opportunities for Burns to flex her considerable comic muscles as a divorced woman looking for love. Feb. 23-March 14; georgestreetplayhouse.org

Review: ‘Smart Blonde’ Revisits a Star of Old Hollywood

Ms. Burns captures Holliday’s vocal mannerisms...wit and comic timing. But she also connects with Holliday’s vulnerability. When Ms. Burns...melts into “What’ll I Do” or “It Must Be Christmas,” it’s easy to forget who is singing. And that is not an impersonation, but a performance.
— The New York Times

THE THEATRE. Now Playing. Smart Blonde.

Burns not only captures the incandescent Holliday of the stage and screen but reveals the depth, insecurity, intelligence, and strength of Judy Tuvim.

PORTRAIT: ANDRÉA BURNS, A LOST BROADWAY CROWN FINDS ITS QUEEN

Chita Rivera, Rita Moreno, and now Andréa Burns

For the last 20 years, Andréa Burns has been paving the way for aspiring Latina Broadway actors...[she] IS the new Latina Queen of Broadway.
— DLG Media
She never thought of herself as a Latina actor but as an actor and storyteller. She went after the roles she wanted. She made them hers and saw no reason why they couldn’t be. Because of her, young Latino/Latina actors can now reference her as someone they can relate to and aspire to be like.
