Children's Gardens Series - Balamcoatl: Mesoamerican Music & Dance

Description

Balamcoatl takes audiences on a journey of movement and experimental sound from the South to the North of Mexico, using traditional regional costumes and instruments. Balam (jaguar in Maya), and coatl (serpent in Nahuatl), unite to weave Mesoamerican themes into a tapestry of colorful legends, drawing audience members into the story through participatory song and dance. During the interactive presentation, children have the opportunity to dance inside the jaguar’s paper mâché costume and play instruments such as turtle shells with deer horns, maracas, drums and rattles.
