Dallas's largest international Latino theatre festival with kickoff, symposium, and performances, presented by Cara Mia Theatre.
Cara Mía Theatre kicks off its new season with the 7th Annual Latinidades Festival, which opens at the Latino Cultural Center on Thursday, October 8. It's the company's largest international Latino theatre festival, and it runs through October 11, so you can pick your days across the long weekend.
Cara Mía launched the festival as a celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, and it serves as the opening of their theatre season. It's a broad one, too: the programming spans two weeks and brings together theatre, dance, music, visual art, and spoken-word poetry. The festival includes a kickoff and a symposium, so there's more to it than just the performances.
Because it's an international festival, the work comes from beyond Dallas, and the mix of disciplines means you're not just seeing plays. You'll find dance, music, visual art, and spoken-word poetry all under the same roof, and the symposium gives you a chance to hear the conversations behind the art. It's the kind of event where you can drop in for one night or spend the whole weekend working your way through the different parts.
