The third graders performed this adaptation of Martina,
Una Cucarachita Muy Linda, a popular Cuban folk tale
about a darling cockroach who, at the age of 21 days, is
expected to marry. Martina, under the watchful eye of
her grandmother, has to receive multiple suitors to decide who is best to marry. And so goes the story.
