Join us for a sip of mezcal at this Day of the Dead-style theatrical experience. Juan Preciado made a promise to his mother on her deathbed: to 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. This new, original Mexican musical makes its international debut, following a sold-out world premiere in Mexico City.
