Chula is a bold, music-infused solo performance by Alexandra Lainfiesta exploring identity, migration, and belonging. Beginning backstage in 2008 as Aria prepares to premiere Canada's first mariachi opera, the story journeys through 1980s Guatemala and 1990s Edmonton, tracing a life shaped by survival, family, and the pressures of assimilation. Performed in English and Spanish, the show brings to life a vibrant cast of characters with humour, heart, and 1990s karaoke hits. Lainfiesta is a Dora Award and Jessie Award-winning actor and recipient of the 2022 Lieutenant Governor's Platinum Jubilee Arts and Music Award.
