Development

Within the human need for expression and the desire to proudly show our heritages and cultural roots, Mictlán Mitótl was created. It is a journey through the culture of death in Mexico, from its pre-Hispanic facet to the present day, using dance and theater, with the support of theatrical, musical, dance, and expression resources on stage, resorting to the discipline of puppetry and new technologies, to expose a family and entertainment show with cultural purposes of rescue, reinterpretation, of survival, and permanence of our Mexican roots.

What is Mictlán Mitótl?

It is an interdisciplinary show that, through dance theater, monumental puppets, music, and multimedia, reinterprets the cosmogony of the Mictlán, showing the deep relationship of the being with the spiritual world of the dead, with the support of the performing arts, it shows the inescapable connection of life with the rituals, uses and customs that lead us to the current idiosyncrasy of "FIESTA DE DIA DE MUERTOS".
This show represents the most important festival for the Mexican people, breaking down the link between their beliefs and the infinite relationship between being born and dying. It is a festival that takes place every year, coinciding with the cycles of the corn harvest, the sustenance of life.
The quality of the Axolotl as a symbol of death, regeneration, and life, evokes us as a nation, because we are a people who invent and recreate themselves every day.
We Mexicans dialogue with death, evoke it, play with it, respect it, and celebrate it. All this added up in a unique and incomparable way, resulting in our "FIESTA DE DIA DE MUERTOS."
