This theatrical play is an adaptation by Antonio Z\u00fa\u00f1iga and Juan Carrillo of William Shakespeare\u2019s Macbeth in a Mexican context. With an alternative dramaturgy inspired by authors such as Juan Rulfo, and Elena Garro; a simple stage design refers to a \u201ccantina\u201d (saloon) that does not correspond to any particular time or place; six actors and three actresses remain all the time on stage with the audience very closely located to all four fronts.

This Dance piece explores the residence of the body itself, and by extension, the everyday entity. It is the search for an image, sometimes lacking in significance, in that micro universe that we inhabit, be it a city or country. It is the reality that gives us back the reflection of our own image. Objects in the Mirror\u2026 is the nearness of a distance. Looking for words to define a city, an immigrant gay artist explores his new life in Miami through a newly commissioned dance choreography.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n [vc_video link=’https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=nWfV-6vb_Ls’]<\/p>\n Macho Man XXI<\/em>, by Tania P\u00e9rez-Salas Dance Company (Mexico) at Miami Dade County Auditorium on May 4th, 2019<\/p>\n FUNDarte<\/span> in Collaboration with Miami Dade County Auditorium<\/span>, presented Macho Man XXI<\/strong><\/em><\/a>.
