The Revenge of Huitlacoche and Other Stories is a solo work performed by José Navarrete that includes art installation, dance, theater, poetry, and political and social commentary in a raw cabaret style. Huitlacoche explores issues on a worldwide scale: migrations, natural disasters, war, religion, the environment, and concepts of alienation and community, in a set of vignettes with decidedly Mexican images and iconography. This project addresses issues that affect communities that are marginalized by the current model of corporate globalization. Navarrete will collaborate in this project with long-time mentors Sara Shelton Mann, June Watanabe, Debby Kajiyama, Joanna Haigood, and Krissy Keefer. Navarrete will provide the concepts and movement vocabulary for each section; each mentor will be assigned a section to direct in collaboration with Navarrete. Krissy Keefer will additionally oversee the arc of the entire theatrical aspect of the project.
