A celebration of dance & song from Mexico
Written by David Gonzalez with Cecilia Macuilxochitl Ortega
Dance & Music by Mexico Beyond Mariachi
“Why is there fire in the woods? Where did the water go?” The world is out of balance, and we must work together to bring the world, and ourselves, back into balance.
Our Indigenous storyteller, Cecilia, guides us on a journey that starts with the magical Danzante and leads to an impossible challenge. Or is it? All along the way dancers and musicians from all parts of Mexico bring their glorious traditions to life.
Featuring dances from Veracruz, Guerrero, Michoacán, and more, Agua Es Vida is a dance and storytelling adventure that celebrates Mexican culture with ALEGRIA!
*This performance is in English, with Spanish and Nahuatl words integrated.
