As an important part of La Pachanga’s
program, we will have readings by “El Flaco” Maldonado and Kathleen Alcalá.
What is more for our Pachanga, Los
Norteños considered three proposals of events before choosing eSe Theatro to
present a short excerpt of their play, "Don Quixote – Homeless in Seattle”
at La Pachanga. Enjoy the following
short video from eSe Theatro.
In addition to the play, CantoMundo’s
five year anniversary will be also celebrated at La Pachanga. We’ll have the
opportunity to hear some poesía by a handful of the CantoMundo poets, Barbara Curiel, David Tomas Martinez, and Juan Morales among others.
Lastly for our event, Words on aWire,
Daniel Chacón, will be en La Pachanga to be part of this
historical momento.
Con Tinta would like to thank some
of our sponsors for this year’s Pachanga.
