Ballet 5:8 brings its original production La Llorona to Albuquerque for one performance at the National Hispanic Cultural Center. Inspired by the enduring Latin American legend, La Llorona uses contemporary ballet and theatrical storytelling to explore grief, motherhood, resilience, vulnerability, and the importance of support during times of profound hardship. The performance will be followed by a conversation connecting the themes of the work with maternal mental health and community resources. Join Ballet 5:8’s professional company for an afternoon of powerful dance and storytelling rooted in a story recognized across generations and cultures.
