Bursting onto the stage with tequila on her lips and shooting from the hip, Astrid Hadad is one of the most extraordinary performers to have broken out of Mexico City’s dynamic performance scene. In the space of a dozen costume changes, Astrid and her troupe Los Tarzanes combine their unique take on Mexico’s ranchero song tradition with a dissection of the bleeding heart of contemporary Mexico. This is musical theatre like you’ve never seen before. You’ll laugh so you can’t hear yourself crying.
