exact revenge on his long-lost father. Follow his unique journey through
the worlds of the living and the dead, fuelled by music and storytelling.
Séance meets musical in this intimate reimagining of seminal novel Pedro
Páramo, by mestiza playwright Conchi León. Featuring music by composer
Pablo Chemor, rooted in folklore, performed using traditional instruments.
