Una Hora Con la Muerte y Algo Más » A Day of the Dead Play
Within the traditional celebrations of Day of the Dead, members of the education sector and the municipality of Puerto Vallarta will transform the resting area of the 5 de Diciembre cemetery into a stage for the presentation of the play, “La Vida Inútil de Pito Pérez” (The useless life of Pito Pérez), written by Jose Romero Galván.
This is the first time a play will be presented inside of the cemetery. There will be two performances: Saturday, October 31, and Sunday, 1 November, at 7 pm.
Admission is free but there is room for only about 80 people at each presentation. Invitations are being prepared, “Una hora con la muerte y algo más” (An hour with the Dead and Something More…).
A new tradition in the making.
