American Mariachi
Two River Theater
By José Cruz González - Directed by James Vásquez - Arrangements by Cynthia Reifler Flores - The Joan and Robert Rechnitz Theater
A heartwarming and humorous story about following your dreams against all odds. I love the idea of cousins Lucha and Boli defying expectations and pursuing their passion for mariachi music in the 1970s. With the backdrop of live music and the cultural richness of mariachi, it seems like a production that will uplift audiences and leave them with a sense of joy. James Vásquez's direction, along with the vibrant arrangements by Cynthia Reifler Flores, promise an engaging and memorable experience.
Cousins Lucha and Boli have a plan— start an all-girl mariachi band! So what if it’s the 1970s and no one’s heard of such a thing? So what if they can’t play and have no costumes? So what if their families disapprove? They are on a mission to find some bandmates and make their mariachi dreams come true. Directed by James Vásquez (Two River’s smash hit Hair), American Mariachi is a moving comedy full of humor, heart, and joyful live music!
