How much is nature, and how much is nurture? Playwright Migdalia Cruz tries to unravel those questions, and more, in her world-premiere El Grito Del Bronx, a co-production of Collaboraction and Teatro Vista. Eight Forty-Eight’s dueling critics Jonathan Abarbanel and Kelly Kleiman dissect the play.

Music Button: Ocote Soul Sounds & Adrian Quesada, "Tu Fin Mi Comienzo", from the CD Coconut Rock, (ESL records)
