Woodcraft Rangers -- one of Los Angeles's largest, longest-running, and most inclusive youth enrichment programs -- has teamed up with comedian Jerry Garcia, Grammy and Latin Grammy award-winning children's musician Lucky Diaz and director and designer Drina Durazo to co-produce La Piñata, groundbreaking Spanish bilingual family musical comedy to premiere on Saturday, May 27, at Art Share LA.
In La Piñata, the entire family prepares for Diego's birthday, but the ten-year-old isn't in the mood to party. His beloved fiesta-loving father is awaiting re-entry from Mexico and may not return before the big day. Then Lumpy, his birthday piñata, magically comes to life to offer delightfully silly, yet wise, lessons about family, community, and the beauty of a traditional Latino family party.
The musical is part of a new Woodcraft Rangers performing arts program called Teatro Fogata, designed to encourage youth creativity and bring more Latinx-inspired content to the stage. Teatro Fogata is made possible thanks to generous support from the California Arts Council and the National Endowment of the Arts.
