An intoxicating evening of music, poetry, and chocolate... in pre-conquest Mexico!
Based on a fifteenth-century dialogue among nobles schooled in rhetoric and philosophy, the play pits father against son in a war of words over the power and beauty of artistic expression.

Ixta y Goyo

Duermen edades ciegas
       pero a veces son activos

Dominan el paisaje
       de la mes(et)a

Una es como de color blanco
       y el otro humeado

Protagonizan leyendas
       contadas entre familia

Majestuosos, representan
       la sabiduría impávida de la naturaleza

Y se siente el retumbar
       cuando ronronean
