You’ve never seen Día de los Muertos like this.
On November 1, Alebrijes take over the Imperial Theatre. The colourful creatures of Mexican folk art come to life through dance, theatre, circus, ancestral movement and original music.
Artists from Mexico and New Brunswick share the stage for Criaturas de Colores, a performance created for Día de los Muertos Atlantic’s fifth anniversary.
One evening. One stage. A world of colour, movement and imagination.
