Sabor de mi corazón, chapitre I : cumbia
Welcome to the sonidero! Drink, dance and sway to cumbia’s rhythm. Born of a union between African drums and Indigenous flute, cumbia’s soul aims to be rebellious, playful, sensual and multifaceted. Join us on what’s intended to be a festive journey to explore the heritage of this musical genre and the cultures that developed around it.

A SAFE(R) SPACE
A safe space is not a place. It’s a way of being, a state that emerges and spreads, a queer utopia. In this anthological performance that oscillates between LGBTQ+ youth’s fantasy and daily life, between rehearsals and clubbing, a group of friends desperately tries to feel safe again. Like a rift in time, this work aims to represent a dream of togetherness in difference, a celebration of complexity and nuance that bares us to the core, condemns violence, tests the limits of authenticity and embodies inclusive and compassionate solutions.
