Performance Opening Night - Nichos

Tanaquil Márquez , Ximena Violante, and Calo Rosa present NICHOS, a multidisciplinary theater creation that traces the evolution of Mexican culture through 500 years of conquest, colonization, exile, assimilation, and cross-cultural generations.

Poetic, humorous, and painful, Nichos is an epic play, celebrating Mexico's complexities, color, and magic.

Inspired by interviews and oral histories from the Philadelphia migrant community and their respective families in Mexico, Nichos explores the question, "When one leaves their country, what do they take with them and what do they leave behind?" Nichos is a trilingual play in English, Spanish and Nahuatl.
