Embark on an unforgettable musical journey. The beloved story of LA LLORONA is masterfully relived by Ópera Cultura on June 22 and 23, 2024 at the Mexican Heritage Plaza Theater in San José, CA.María, a young indigenous Xochil, falls in love with a Spanish gentleman, triggering a series of events that lead inexorably to madness, betrayal and a fatal encounter with the relentless Xochil River. The river, a character in its own right, becomes the catalyst for unspeakable tragedy, culminating in the heartrending sacrifice of her child, Sara, and cementing La Llorona's eternal lament.
It will be a production of LA LLORONA like no others. Our creative team, led by stage director Allie Bailey and a predominantly-female team of designers, is committed to bring this powerful story to life & presenting this story through a feminist lens, challenging traditional views and reclaiming the narrative of LA LLORONA. We are exploring themes of emotionality, machismo, marianismo, and the duality of humanity and monstrosity.
Your support in purchasing tickets and attending the performances will help us bring this important story to the stage and continue to amplify diverse voices and human stories in the arts.
