Tuya siempre, Julita is a bold and touching play by the highly acclaimed Puerto Rican playwright Roberto Ramos-Perea that explores the love-hate relationship between two literary giants—Julia de Burgos and Luis Lloréns Torres. The play delves into themes of passion, artistic influence, and even accusations of “plagiarism,” while highlighting the challenges women writers face in a male-dominated cultural landscape.
Julia de Burgos is the pioneering poet and social justice advocate who laid the groundwork for the impactful Nuyorican literary movement. Luis Lloréns Torres is celebrated as a national poet of Puerto Rico whose literary work helped shape Puerto Rican identity. Their legacies—intertwined with both love and literary rivalry—continue to resonate today.
