Sombra Del Sol | Producción de Teatro para Jóvenes

En un pueblo pequeño localizado en el corazón del Amazonas, Sombra Del Sol se llena de música y baile mientras su pueblo recrea el día en que se fundó. Cuando cuatro amigos empiezan a cuestionar las leyendas y tradiciones de los orígenes del pueblo, la magia de la tierra revela que para avanzar hacia al futuro, deben de aceptar el pasado.

Aunque todos pueden disfrutar Sombra Del Sol, esta producción es una gran experiencia para niños de escuela primaria e intermedia.

Esta producción se realizará en inglés.
