Fall Touring Show

The Performing Arts Department and the Theatre and Performance Studies program are proud to be partnering with ÁNIMO Theatre Company of Ventura to present MARIACHI GIRL, a bilingual musical by Roxanne Schroeder-Arce with music and lyrics by
Héctor Martínez Morales, directed by ÁNIMO Artistic Director and CI faculty Miguel Orozco.

MARIACHI GIRL is a bilingual musical about a young girl’s dream of following in her father’s footsteps to become a Mariachi, but her dream runs counter to his traditional, patriarchal roots. Told through the eyes of a young girl, the musical explores cultural stereotypes and assimilation in the United States. It is a heartwarming story that celebrates cultural identity and promotes a positive self-image for young women.

Appropriate for ages 5 years and up.

This performance runs approximately one hour and twenty minutes. For more information about the show, please contact instructor, director and producer, miguel.orozco@csuci.edu
