Synopsis

MIGRACIONES / MIGRATIONS follows the journey of migrating refugees in a unique performance that combines life-sized puppets, sand drawings, shadow puppetry projections, live music, and poetry in English and Spanish.

This culture-crossing production was created in response to the increasing barriers between the Paradox Teatro co-founders’ home countries, the United States and Mexico. The artists say they created it partially “in honour of all the people whose needs push them to migrate far away from their homes forever.”
