You know the story of the Underground Railroad that ran North—but this show takes you on the path that ran South, revealing the untold journey of thousands who escaped slavery by crossing the Rio Grande into Mexico. Called “thrilling” by The Washington Post and “genius in motion” by the San Francisco Chronicle, this groundbreaking theatrical experience follows a freedom seeker and an unlikely ally as they forge a remarkable bond that transcends borders.

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Mexodus
‘Mexodus’ Review: A History Musical With Thrilling Loop-the-Loops
9 / 10
As guides through this history lesson, Quijada and Robinson are charming, musically dexterous and rap at the speed of light. (They would undoubtedly medal in the linguistic Olympics.) They also sing like sirens and expertly play the overflow of instruments scattered across Riw Rakkulchon’s quasi-barn set that also resembles a shipping container, a rickety trove of concealed treasures.
'Mexodus' Off-Broadway review — lost history gets a stunning musical spotlight
10 / 10
Mexodus, directed by David Mendizábal, comes just as packed with history and intention as it does with good music and good fun. It may just be the most fun you have at a show all year. But what makes this musical so likely to stay with its audience is the creators' focus on intersectionality: what solidarity between oppressed groups meant in the past, what it means in the present, and what it will mean in the future.
