| Tuya siempre, Julita- The grand premiere of the new version of "Tuya siempre, Julita" Story that resonates deeply in our community and touches hearts and inspire audiences. Our presentations took place at the Miriam Colon Theater within the Julia de Burgos Cultural Center from June 13th to June 16th, and feature two highly respected actors and exceptional stage directors: Belange Rodriguez in the role of Julia de Burgos (Award-Winning Actress) and Jose Cheo Oliveras (Founder & Artistic Director of Teatro Circulo), all under the co-direction of Amneris Morales(Puertorrican Award-Winning actress and director) and Ivan Goris (an Award-Winning Actor from the Dominican Republic). "Tuya Siempre, Julita" is a thought-provoking play that intricately explores the life and legacy of the renowned Puerto Rican poet, Julia de Burgos. Authored by Mr. Roberto Ramos Perea, one of Puerto Rico's most esteemed playwrights, the play delves into the challenges faced by women, embodied by Julia de Burgos, in their quest for recognition as writers within a cultural milieu dominated by male authority. Through this rendition, previously untold narratives are unveiled, and shedding light on the intimate relationship between Julia de Burgos and Luis Lloréns Torres. Much has been said about Julia de Burgos, her poetry and her tragic life. However, history continues to surprise us with new findings about her loves and her struggle to become what she eventually was and continues to be, the greatest Puerto Rican national poet in our entire history. "Tuya siempre, Julita" was published for the first time in 1993 and following its publication and subsequent presentations of this work where the hypothetical love relationship between Julia and the poet Luis Llorens Torres was presented, there were many comments of astonishment, especially from Julia scholars who thought that this relationship was just gossip. However, after thorough studies, it was proven that not only was this relationship a reality, but also that the poetry of both poets reflected traits of a kind of mutual plagiarism. The author, Mr. Ramos Perea, came from Puerto Rico and during the opening night leading perceptive Q&A sessions that delve into the creative process and the narratives behind the play and, the producers, along with the directors of the play, and actors offering an enriching opportunity for audience engagement. Those conversations offering insight into the life and influence of Julia de Burgos on contemporary literature and theater, also.

| ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt | 0 | The organization experienced unforeseen delays in obtaining necessary documentation from third parties, which was essential for completing the return accurately. Despite diligent efforts to secure these documents in a timely manner, they were not available until today, which prevented submission by the original deadline. Additionally, the organization encountered technical difficulties with the electronic filing system. The organization exercised ordinary business care and prudence in attempting to file on time and has since resolved the issues to ensure timely filings in the future. |
