Luis Moro returns to Union City

Luis Moro comes Home

with his comedy show "DO OVER"

(Union City, NJ)  The City of Union City presents the comedy show "Do Over" starring Luis Moro on Saturday, December 2, 2017 at 7:00 PM at the Union City Performing Arts Center, 2500 Kennedy Boulevard, Union City, NJ.  Admission is free.  Parking is available at the 23rd Street Municipal Deck located on 23rd Street between Summit and Kerrigan Avenues.

Luis has earned a range of accomplishments in many of life’s great opportunities.  While his resume is diverse, the base expression is the same. Being creative, producing sustainable results that make a difference empowering people.  

In 2010 he became a full-time single father, with two daughters and step-son.  At that point, he decided to focus 100% on parenting and took a hiatus from comedy performing.

During this time, he authored six books on Professional Parenting, including “I AM a Professional Parent” which established a new context for parents raising “fully functioning, self-determining” children.  His show, "DO OVER" is Luis' return to the comedy stage.

“Doing life over every hour is a must for successful parenting. Finding the comedy to Do Over it over every minute is must for living.” 

- Luis Moro

Luis was Nominated Best Actor at The American Black Film Festival for his role as Alberto in the history making film "Love & Suicide".  He also received Independent Spirit Award nominations for his writing and producing the multiple award winning film "Anne B. Real".  Luis is also co-writer of the three main Hip-Hop lyrics and diary entries performed by the lead character of Cynthia.

Luis acclaimed films include "The Unseen", a drama shot in Atlanta Georgia. The history making romance, "Cuba’s Love and Suicide", set in Havana, Cuba and New York plus the comedy "Venus & Vegas", shot in Los Angeles and Las Vegas.

Luis is the co-producer on two award winning films, "Roll With me", currently winning awards in the film festival circuit; and "Where We Begin", which garnered many national and international awards.  His current slate of films ranges from the true Native American story "Whispers Like Thunder" to the comedy "The God Brother".  

He began his writing career while in the real estate mortgage business by creating, writing and hosting the first ever Latin-American real estate and travel television show "Real Estate America" which aired on Univision.

Luis is a graduate of Rutgers University, where he lettered and received NCAA award for football.   He can be seen in small acting roles in various film, including "Siege", the (1998) "King of the Ants" and his debut supporting role in "Cuba’s Love & Suicide".

His biggest accomplishment is creating entertainment content that empowers people and that make a difference to society.

About Maxima Alerta

Multi-award winning group Maxima Alerta… “Latin Group of the Year” by Communitarian Media Network; Premio ARTE 2017 for “Best Latin Band”, “New Jersey’s Best Latin Group” by Cine & Novelas; Union City Artist Award; and final entry on the Latin Grammy’s.  

Maxima Alerta was one of Cuba’s best known and loved fusion bands.  The group has moved to the US and it is now based in the NYC area.  It is known for its fusion of Cuban Music and other genres forming a fresh hip sound.  From son cubano to conga, from cumbia to merengue, from rap to ballads… all with a fresh modern sound taunting audiences on their feet to dance and have a good time. 

The group became a local favorite, and for four years Ray worked hard to develop their unique sound and build a following.  In 2003 Máxima Alerta exploded on the national scene, hitting radio and television stations with two songs, “Echar pa’ lante” and “Adegüello 1895” which very quickly became popular throughout the country. Thanks to these successes, in 2004 they delivered their new album “Llegaron los Alertas”, recorded at Abdala Studios owned by renowned singer/composer Silvio Rodriguez with the French company Lusafrica, and joining their catalog and sharing the stage with popular groups such as La Orquesta Aragón, Polo Montañez, Anacaona, Isaac Delgado, Osdalgia, among others.

In 2005 Máxima Alerta was nominated to Cubadisco as “Best Album Rap, Dance and Hip Hop” which garnered the group great popularity both nationally and internationally, as well as topping the charts. Later in 2009 the group returned to the top of the charts with the song "La Figura" (“Ay Lola”) recorded with the multi-award winning and internationally renowned group Gente de Zona.

Later in 2011, they released the CD “Alertas para Todos”, recorded and produced by Nando Pro in Havana, Cuba. This is an album containing fourteen tracks, of which six featured special guests: Yulien Oviedo and Dantes (Charanga Habanera); Alexander Delgado y Randy Marcos (Gente de Zona); Sisto Llorente "El Indio" (Orquesta Aragón); Los Cuatro; and Alain Daniel and Ramón Lavado (El Chacal). The CD also features a song dedicated to one of the greatest Cuban baseball players, Victor Mesa.

After enjoying much success in Cuba, the group resettled in the United States, where they recorded a new production. In October 2015, Maxima Alerta was reborn in the US performing in two SOLD OUT concerts in New York City with legendary merengue singer Fernandito Villalona.  In 2016, Maxima Alerta released its new song "Vive la Vida" with an accompanying music video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9YEtBVjltIc

Subsequently the group had a SOLD OUT concert at the legendary Maxwell’s in Hoboken;  a SOLD OUT concert with bachata super star Anthony Santos at the historic 1,500 seat Park Performing Arts Center; a SOLD OUT concert with Los Van Van at the Infinity Yacht, and has performed at many large outdoor venues including the Cuban Parade Of New Jersey.  Most recently, the group also released a new single “Que Viva USA”.

Gran Estreno en NYC

"Bahía de Cochinos, Nuestra Perspectiva"

Presentación de Estreno en NYC

El documental "Bahía de Cochinos, Nuestra Perspectiva" tendra su estreno en la Ciudad de Nueva York el Domingo, 12 de marzo 2017 a las 6:30 PM en el Comisionado Dominicano de Cultura, 541 West 145th Street, 2nd Floor, NYC, NY 10031. La entrada es gratuita.  El Comisionado Dominicano de Cultura es indudablemente el mas activo e importance centro cultural Hispano de la Ciudad de Nueva York.

"Bahía de Cochinos, Nuestra Perspectiva" es una película documental sobre la Bahía de Cochinos representada a través de los ojos de exiliados cubanos que participaron en la invasión. Ahora, muchos años después, contemplan los acontecimientos y comparten sus historias y sentimientos individuales. Esa historia tiene un precio, un precio que les preguntamos si estarían dispuestos a pagar de nuevo. Cuando todo está dicho y hecho, ¿están estos últimos invasores resentidos? ¿Le echan la culpa a alguien? ¿Quién perdió más en la invasión de Bahía de Cochinos, los exiliados, los cubanos revolucionarios, o el pueblo de Cuba?  Esta es una nueva narración de esta historia, y se recuenta con profunda emoción.

La película cuenta con el testimonio de miembros de la Brigada 2506: Ángel Casabona, Isidoro López, Ricardo M. Montero, Raúl Puig, y Alvin Ross; así como con Sergio Gatria, director del Cuban Information Center. Sus historias son conmovedoras y arrojan luz sobre la invasión de Bahía de Cochinos. La película posiblemente creará un diálogo serio sobre lo que realmente sucedió detrás de los acontecimientos que condujeron a la invasión y sus consecuencias posteriores.

La pelicula se ha presentado en varios distinguidos lugares, incluyendo el Museo de Arte de Union City; Union City Performing Arts Center; Miami Hispanic Cultural Arts Center; Centro Cultural de las Telecomunicaciones in Santo Domingo, RD; Casa de Cultura de La Vega, RD; Casa de Cultura de Constanza, RD; y por Silver Star Television en Peru.  

"Bahía de Cochinos, Nuestra Perspectiva" está dirigida por el reconocido director cubano, Ricardo Bacallao y Lucio Fernandez; producida por MeLu Films y The Grace Theatre Workshop, Inc.; Megan Fernandez, Productora Ejecutiva; Lucio Fernandez, Productor.
