You know the story of the Underground Railroad that ran North, but this show takes you on the path that ran South by crossing the Rio Grande into Mexico. “An electrifying theatrical experience” (The New York Times), this groundbreaking musical follows a freedom seeker and an unlikely ally as they forge a remarkable bond that transcends borders. Mexodus creators Brian Quijada and Nygel D. Robinson transform the entire stage into a live looping machine, layering sound elements from a piano, a standup bass, beatbox percussion, an accordion, a harmonica, a trumpet, crumpled paper, a washboard, boot spurs, and more to create a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, showtunes, and rancheros.
