Coco's Barrio Ep 05: Immigration: An American Tradition

Check out Teatro del Pueblo's latest Coco's Barrio episode. As associate producer I recorded, engineered and edited this episode. We explore the challenges of navigating the American immigration system through parody and music from Mestifonia, Cathy Piñeiro and Mariachi Internacional. Teatro del Pueblo's acting troupe brings to life an Immigration Rhapsody. Don’t miss Coco’s conversation with Veena Iyer, Executive Director of the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota.

Coco's Barrio Podcast

Coco's Barrio – Teatro del Pueblo's bi-lingual live theater and variety show – is now a podcast! I was a sound engineer and live-on-stage Foley sound effects performer for the original Coco's stage shows. Now I have the honor of recording, associate-producing, sound designing, and editing the Coco's Barrio podcast. It's just like the stage show but more intimate with new surprises. Check out all of our past episodes and stay tuned as a new 10 episode (!) is coming later in 2024 – we've recorded 5 full Coco's shows and are currently in post-production to turn them into episodes.
