La Carpa De La Frontera is a site-specific tent-like vaudeville show where entertainment is taken into communities who are in most need of healing from the current pandemic situation. This comic relief performance will address issues such as immigration, race, human rights, accessibility, and culture in a comedic form through performance and visual art, using the concept of the old carpa (tent) style setting used in Mexican during the 1930s, ’40s and ’50s.
