Produced by Rainbow Theater from the Theatre Arts Department. Written and directed by Professor Carlos Barón, it includes the choreography of Adriana Sánchez, music composed and performed by Maestro Miguel Martinez and the presence of actress/singer Saday Osorio Córdova. The other performers are students from the Latino/a Teatro Workshop at SF State, with the technical services and other production needs supplied by students from SF State’s Broadcast and Electronic Communication Arts and Theatre Arts departments.

We want you to attend our play not merely as a regular spectator but as a voyager of culture. Give us your suspension of disbelief and we will take you somewhere mystical, enchanting and uplifting. We want to see you and your loved ones submerged in the sea of culture that will shower throughout the Mission on Día de los Muertos.
