The only theatre company in Sonora with a year-round seasonWe are a nonprofit company in northern Mexico, two hours from the Arizona border. We produce our own work, host companies from across the country, and take performances to towns with no venue of their own. Since 2018 we have run El Mentidero. We are also one of the few sources of steady employment for artists trained in this state.
