“Calpulli Mexican Dance Co. and Queens Theatre are hosting the biggest performing arts celebration of dia de muertos in New York City.”

-Juan Castaño, Executive Director & Co-Founder, Calpulli Mexican Dance Company

Enhance your Dia de Muertos experience with an exclusive VIP Reception on Sunday, October 26 at 4:00 PM in the Cabaret. Tickets are $100 and include your ticket to the show. Availability is limited. Reserve your spot today!

 

A small town in southern Mexico prepares for a celebration. The town rejoices at Lupita’s arrival, and that of Raul, her beloved. Maximiliano, only son of the town’s richest family, reminds Lupita’s mother of their secret agreement to take Lupita’s hand. Upon learning of the arrangement, Lupita refuses. Dejected, Maximiliano challenges Raul to a duel and loses. Maximiliano, seeking revenge on Raul, accidentally ends Lupita’s life, leaving no chance for her to say goodbye to her loved one. Lupita is transported to Mictlán, the world of the dead, where she meets La Catrina. Lupita is in awe of the beauty she sees and remembers Raul. La Catrina, surprised by seeing sadness, gives Lupita an opportunity to say goodbye to her love. Lupita, briefly returns to the world of the living. La Catrina shows Raul that one day he will meet his beloved in the world of the departed. With new found hope, Raul and the townsfolk continue to celebrate the return of their departed loved ones.
