Join the Heartfelt Journey of Abuelita at the Capri Theatre

Get ready to feel the rhythm of New York City like never before. Prime Productions is thrilled to present the World Premiere of Abuelita by Nathan Yungerberg, running March 14–29 at the Capri Theatre. It’s July 1993, and a record-breaking heatwave is pushing Spanish Harlem to the boiling point. When Davia, a weary grandmother from Iowa, arrives on a stoop with her mixed-race grandson, Jesús, she’s looking for more than just shade, she’s seeking a connection to his Nuyorican roots. What follows is a “hotter’n a blister bug” transformation where the Iowa chill melts away into a world of music, dancing, and a community that refuses to be ignored.

Directed by the visionary Sha Cage, this production is a heartfelt, magical exploration of family and the unexpected ways we find home. Whether you’re here for the nostalgic ‘90s energy or the moving story of cultural awakening, ABUELITA is the must-see event of the season. Experience the magic with Pay As You Are ticketing, making world-class theater accessible to everyone.

Secure your seats today at PrimeProds.org and join for a journey that proves even the hottest summers can lead to the most beautiful beginnings.

Again the shows run March 14-19 at the Capri Theatre in Minneapolis. Tickets and more info at: PrimeProds.org
