2026-2027 Season
AlebRIJES! A Day of The Dead Play by Georgina Escobar and originally commissioned by Milagro Theatre in Portland, Oregon. Join La Muerte as she chases Pedro, and his three totemitos in this family-friendly Day of the Dead celebration of fantastical Mexican folk art. A mythologized telling of the life (and almost death) of alebrije creator Pedro Linares, this screwball comedy is about art’s capacity to transcend mortality. Follow Pedro on a nostalgic visit to Mexico City in 1936, discover his special relationship to his animals, and join him in his journey through a psychedelic Oaxacan jungle (or is it the afterlife?). Filled with spectacle to include community-built alebrijes, puppetry, and filled with movement and beloved traditional music, the show culminates in a community altar-building experience which invites audiences to light a candle to and speak the names of their dearly departed. Directed by Ivan Cano.

A Christmas Carol en La Frontera A timeless masterpiece told in the spirit of La Frontera! This holiday ghost story is filled with thrills and chills to delight young and old alike. But more than a yuletide spectacle, this play is a tale of family, solitude, and redemption. By transplanting the familiar Dickens’ classic from Victorian England to the US/Mexican border, the story finds new life and cultural relevance. Written by UTEP professors Jay Stratton and Adriana Domínguez and directed Beth Leffler, this tale brings the Christmas spirit to El Paso.
When: December 11th and 12th 2026
