Hasta La Muerte is an enthralling new production created by Las Cafeteras in the spirit of the Indigenous/Mexican practice known as Day of the Dead. The two-act theatrical and musical performance explores the stages of grief and loss through the celebration of life and death. The production revisits Mexican folklore to tell new stories, engage old archetypes, challenge patriarchy, uplift the role of curanderas and re-examine our imagination about death and the afterlife. Hasta La Muerte combines mesmerizing choreography, poetry and a score of original and traditional songs for a night of transcendent color and sound and a moving invitation to travel through time, rhythm and memory.
Great show, both Making Movies and Las Cafeteras. I enjoyed hearing their new music as well as the old. Great collaboration. I love their fight and positive energy. Hope they can comeback!
