What the source said
Sugar Skull! A Día de Muertos Musical Adventure brings a vibrant bilingual story for young audiences and families to the Wheeler stage. Twelve-year-old Vita Flores cannot understand why her family prepares an elaborate celebration for relatives who have passed on. Everything changes when Sugar Skull, a lively candy skeleton with secrets of her own, appears and launches Vita into a colorful world between memory and imagination. Guided by her skeletal companion, Vita dances with ancient ancestors, sings with a sorrowful sorceress, and outwits mischievous Chaneques drawn from Mexican folklore. Traditional regional music and dance, rich visuals, and bilingual storytelling illuminate the history and symbols of Día de Muertos, highlighting themes of remembrance, family, and cultural pride. Crafted as a touring bicultural musical, Sugar Skull! offers an engaging introduction to Mexican traditions for children while resonating with adults through its layered story and spirited score. The performance is designed for multilingual, multicultural audiences of all ages.
