Embrace the supernatural with an unforgettable installment of THE SALTY SERIES as we bring the legendary La Pocha Nostra to San Diego!
The weekend begins with an unforgettable live performance by La Pocha Nostra, featuring La Pocha Nostra’s Artistic Directors Balitrónica and Guillermo Gómez-Peña, with special guest Perry Vasquez. The Mex Files: A Divination Ritual is an immersive, live-action duet where spoken word and ritual performance collide. In a piece that defies conventional storytelling, Balitrónica manipulates tarot decks and a casino roulette, allowing fate to dictate the script and performance, creating a constantly evolving experience. This intimate and raw performance confronts both personal and collective crises, speaking to Gómez-Peña’s ongoing exploration of cultural reinvention, spiritual upheaval, and survival in the age of pandemics. The weekend continues with a screening of four of Gómez-Peña’s groundbreaking films on Sunday, October 20 at The Front Arte Cultura Gallery, offering a rare glimpse into the evolution of his cinematic work. NOTE: Ages 18+ The performance and films contain nudity and are not suitable for children. La Pocha Nostra on Facebook / Instagram
