Calpulli Mexican Dance Company’s repertoire is a carnival of folkloric traditions and original creations both choreographic and musical developed since 2004. Calpulli tells narrative-based stories told entirely through dance, music, elaborate and colorful costuming, and with the passion of performers. Stories are conceived and created by co-founders Alberto Lopez Herrera, former Artistic Director, and Juan Castaño, Executive Director, and are told through the artistic vision of Artistic Director Grisel Pren Monje.

Día de Muertos is a story in which a loving couple falls victim to treachery and is separated, seemingly forever. The young woman enters the underworld of Aztec mythology where the mesmerizing Catrina reigns as queen.
