El Milagro del Recuerdo

A world premiere and prequel to the mariachi opera Cruzar la Cara de la LunaEl Milagro del Recuerdo/The Miracle of Remembering brings audiences back to where it all began, Michoacán, Mexico. Set during Christmas, the opera lovingly explores the themes of traditions and familial bonds while it’s characters deal with life-changing decisions and dream of something more.
