The Early Works of Edwin C. De La Rosa

By Edwin C. De La Rosa

This collection of unique stage plays includes historical action/adventure stories based on real life figures such as Emily D. West, Estevanico and it includes a modern day drama based on the life of a young drug dealer.

"La Fuente Vive" is an action/adventure story about a Spanish Conquistador seeking the fountain of youth in Americas to cure his dying wife's illness. "Amarilla" is an action/adventure story inspired by the true folk heroine Emily D. West who played a huge role for the Texas Revolution with the The Battle of San Jacinto. "Estevanico" is an action/adventure story inspired by true explorer Estevanico, the first known black man to arrive in America as a member of the Spanish expedition details his journey in the mainland. "Angeles y Banditos" is a drama that follows a young man's life as a drug dealer and the troubles that comes with his work.

This collection of plays is written to the best of my abilities to appeal in an entertaining way to this great melting pot we call America. The mere word play has a meaning of an activity that people engage in for mere entertainment or enjoyment. Therefore as a playwright, I feel that it is my duty to create a piece of literature in which the dialogue and the actions of our characters entertain and bring joy to the audience.
