Teatro Paraguas presents

Encantado: The Poetry of New Mexico

Encantado: The Poetry of New Mexico is the newest production in Teatro Paraguas’ poesía viva (living poetry) series, which takes poetry from the page to the stage in fully dramatized performances that celebrate especially Hispanic and Latinx poetic traditions. This year Teatro Paraguas “comes home” to present the contemporary poetry of the Land of Enchantment, New Mexico.

An ensemble of nine actors and musicians will perform a diverse array of works by native New Mexicans, transplants, indigenous poets, world-renowned authors and prize winners as well as young and emerging writers. Most of the poetry and music will be in English. Works in Spanish will be performed in the original language with English translations projected above the stage.
