Event Description
Enjoy this Mexican theater production—now in English!
Pita is a war veteran who, hoping to reintegrate into society, decides to work in an office, but it turns out not to be what he expected. He uses every break to escape reality and return to his childhood dreams.
Ever since he was a child, he had loved traveling the world and playing the piano. But in his youth, a phone call changed his life, and he decided to leave.

He became a Latin dancer and now has more than 20 years of experience; he has participated in dance conventions in various countries and has also won competitions in Mexico and the United States.
