La Llorona - A Musical Drama

An epic Tale of Love, Betrayal & Vengeance

Anyone who has ancestral roots from Mexico knows the epic legend of La Llorona/The Weeping Woman. This tale has been told and retold throughout central America the United States. Some would say, she is the Mexican Medea.
In this new musical drama, La Llorona/The Weeping Woman, composer and playwright Hector Armienta tells us how it all began:
Mexico at the turn of the century. A young Xochil Indian girl fell desperately in love with a man of Spanish lineage, and the great Xochil river has never forgiven her. Twenty years later she is married, and now the river will take its revenge upon her. Her husband will betray her, she will go mad, and the river will torment her until she sacrifices her only child, Sara. She will forever weep.
“La Llorona is a superb, exciting musical....” “Armienta’s music is colorful and highly expressive”
