Update: Event Canceled
Due to low attendance numbers for this performance, Cuentos by David Gonzalez has been canceled. We know this news is disappointing, and we appreciate your understanding. If you were interested in this K-12 matinée, we encourage you to consider one of the other performances in the series.
Wednesday, February 7 | 10 a.m.
From critically acclaimed and award-winning artist David Gonzalez, Cuentos paints a vivid picture of the people and rich cultures of the Spanish-speaking world with colorful tales from the Caribbean, South America, and the Bronx! From the silly antics of the Puerto Rican anti-hero "Juan Bobo" to the mysterious dealings and powers of the Orishas in a suite of Afro-Cuban stories, these tales are filled with memorable characters, fantastic plots and positive messages for children. Spanish language words are sprinkled throughout the stories and songs in such a way that young audiences can repeat and retain their sound and meaning. Solid entertainment and a great introduction to the marvelous world of Latino literature and culture.
