Florencia Cuenca has been entertaining the masses since she was 3 — singing, acting and dancing onstage, in telenovelas and in variety shows. Born and raised in Mexico City, her father, Enrique Cuenca, one half of the legendary Mexican comedy duo Los Polivoces, introduced her to musical theater, showing her legendary movie musicals such as “The Sound of Music” and “My Fair Lady.”
Since then, the 32-year-old has performed Mexified versions of classic Broadway tunes on some of the biggest stages in New York City, released an accompanying album and even produced her own musical. This month, she makes history as the first Mexican immigrant to originate a co-leading role on Broadway before obtaining U.S. citizenship, portraying Estela Garcia in the musical adaptation of “Real Women Have Curves,” ( @rwhcmusical ) which is currently in previews and opens April 27.
We set down with @flowcuenca to talk about her trajectory, her upbringing and what this role means to her.

Vayan al siguiente video para saber un poco más de la canción 👉🏻
Gracias mi Florcita por grabar esta canción conmigo, eras la persona perfecta sin duda alguna. Atesoro además por sobre todas las cosas la hermosa amistad/hermandad que tenemos.
Siempre he pensado que reír la vida hace el camino y los días menos difíciles, más gozones, más divertidos y felices y sin duda tu llegaste a mi vida para ser mi partner in crime en dicha labor.
Te admiro muchísimo, aquí estoy siempre para ti y por favor… sigamos riéndonos de literalmente TODO y NADA… así como en el video jajaja
