Tapanco Cultural Center celebrates 13 years of existence with a gala performance with the dramatized reading of Juan Balam, an adaptation of the work Salvajada by Mauricio Kartun, based on a story by Horacio Quiroga. The performance will be this Sunday, March 2, at the Olimpo Cultural Center in Merida, at 6 p.m.
“We made an adaptation of the work Salvajada to the Yucatecan context; it talks about a child who is a jaguar child, or a tiger child, as it is known in the communities, who is raised among humans,” said Alejo Medina, artistic co-director of Tapanco Cultural Center
The reading talks about the hardship that these species survive, which, in general, face the human fear that sees them as a threat.
