Mayor Brian P. Stack & Board of Commissioners will present "Life to a Guaracha Beat," a tribute to the legendary Hermanas Marquez on Tuesday, May 29, 2012 at 7:00 PM at the Union City Performing Arts Center, 2500 Kennedy Boulevard.  Admission is free.

This will be a tribute to the legendary Marquez Sisters.  A musical journey through the life of these sisters who walked their sparkling guaracha from the Palladium and the Apollo in New York to the main theater of Mexico and the world. Also a stunning tribute to the Mexican cinema in its golden age.  But most of all, a tribute to the venerable Marquez Sisters, who received the Grammy for their life’s artistic achievements in 2011.
 
The event, Directed and hosted by Armando Lopez, will feature performances by the renown pianist Meme Solis, the sparkling Yerason Charanga, the Guateque Campesino,  songstress Olga Merediz and Lourdes Lopez, the dancers Pedro Domech and Rita Macias, and many other artistic surprises.
