American Mariachi at The Public Theater of San Antonio

American Mariachi is set in the 1970s, where Lucha spends her days caring for her ailing mother but longs to shake up her life. When a forgotten record sparks her mothers memory, Lucha and her cousin strike upon a radical idea: to create an all-female mariachi band. Infused with live music played by a live mariachi band, this big-hearted, musical tugs at the heartstrings and reminds us how music and love can make just about anything possible.
