Marcella Lepe Creates a children’s play called “Lichita”
Lichita (La Bosita) is a drama for the whole family, featuring the young acting troupe of Manuel Lepe, Karen Alvaro, Brenda Macedo, Carlos Hernandez, Valeria Rodriguez and Solis Adalya.
The original music for Lichita is by well-known producer, Charlie Santana. The play is 30 minutes long and is aimed at reaching all of the children of Vallarta to explain the concept of waste separation within the new program of separation of garbage in the city and its colonias.
Marcella Lepe Quiroz, the daughter of the famous Vallarta artist Manuel Lepe, was invited by Mayor Javier Bravo to head this project to reach the children of Vallarta in a manner that would clearly and simply explain the new and radical city program of garbage recycling.
The play premieres at the Los Arcos Amphitheater on Sunday, September 20 at 7:30 pm. Admission is free and all children of the city are encouraged to attend. Adults, of course, are encouraged to attend, also.
Presentations will also be made in Vallarta schools starting September 15 and in Ixtapa schools starting September 18.
