About this Performance
More than 50 years after the first iteration of ¡FIESTA!, the Bob Baker Marionette Theater revitalizes its classic, jolly puppet show for a new generation of audiences. Featuring newly incorporated characters and cultures, ¡FIESTA! brings life to dancing cacti, colorful birds, and marimba maestros from Xochimilco in a never-before-seen Día de Muertos sequence. And the beloved marionette marching band serves a new look with outfits inspired by Mariachi Arcoiris de Los Angeles, the world’s first LGBTQ+ mariachi band.
