MIGRACIONES / MIGRATIONS follows the journey of migrating refugees in a unique performance that combines life-sized puppets, sand drawings, shadow puppetry projections, live music, and poetry in English and Spanish. This culture-crossing production is created in response to the increasing barriers between the Paradox Teatro co-founders’ home countries, the United States and Mexico.

Co-founders and artistic directors Sofia Padilla and Davey T. Steinman created MIGRACIONES / MIGRATIONS in response to the increasing barriers between their respective home countries of Mexico and the United States. The artists call the show “refugee puppetry and poetry in English and Español,” and say they created it partially “in honor of all the people whose needs push them to migrate far away from their homes forever.”
