🎭 In this episode of Gracias, Come Again, we sit down with Blood Love star Christopher M. Ramirez (Anzick) and choreographer Jonathan Platero, one of the creative forces behind the dance sequences seen throughout the entire play, for a fun, honest, and inspiring conversation about Latinidad, Vampires, Broadway, culture, and chasing your dreams.

Christopher opens up about his journey as the son of a Colombian mother, growing up in Indiana, and making his Broadway debut in Real Women Have Curves. We talk about identity, representation, and what it means to proudly be Latino, even if you don’t speak Spanish, while still staying deeply connected to your roots. He also breaks down his role in Blood Love, what it took to land it, and the incredible cast and creative team behind the production.

Jonathan Platero shares his story as the son of Salvadoran parents raised in Florida, his rise to fame as a finalist on So You Think You Can Dance (Season 5), and his journey into choreography. We get into his love story with his wife, Oksana, a standout star from Dancing with the Stars, their work together, and what it’s like co-choreographing Blood Love on stage.

Together, we talk about the importance of Latino representation in Broadway, supporting our own, and why showing up for Latino-led projects matters more than ever.

This episode is full of laughs, real talk, and behind-the-scenes gems from one of the most exciting shows in NYC right now.
