Who am I?

Hey! I'm Martín, a Colombian performing artist and communications professional that loves Musical Theatre and Broadway. As a muggle, I work as a Digital Strategist and Social Media & Content Manager, but I got the only Latin American podcast that covers Broadway and the Musical Theatre Industry! I also like to define myself as a Disney hero on a quest. ✨ If you want to know more about me, you can find me everywhere at @themartinacuna! Let's chat! I'm always looking for new pods and new opportunities! Broadway has always been the guiding North Star since 2008, and since I graduated, I've pursued that dream. Being a performer you'd think that my only POV about Broadway would be to be on the stage, but I've learned and loved what also happens backstage. Since 2019 I've been on my way to conquering Broadway one step at a time. In the end, Musical Theatre is what makes me feel most alive.
