For three nights only the iconic music room of the Mexican Cultural Institute will host two of the best Mexican actresses of their generation, María del Carmen Félix and Mariannela Cataño facing off on an acting duel that will undoubtedly shake the audiences.

Under a current sociopolitical context and touching on issues such as migration, sisterhood and inequality of opportunities, the new work of the Mexican playwright Victor Salinas is presented at the Mexican Cultural Institute "La Pájara de San Juan", which invites us to question what experiences and memories mark us, what consequences our decisions have, and if we can ignore the misfortune of the other as long as it doesn’t knock on our door.

María del Carmen Félix (great grand niece of the legendary Mexican diva María Félix) and Mariannela Cataño two stars of the Mexican stage, face off on an acting duel that will undoubtedly shake the audiences.

Performed in Spanish with English subtitles.
