>>> THE RITUAL OF HUMAN SACRIFICE IN PROVIDES THE UNLIKELY BACKDROP FOR A MUSICAL AT A THEATER IN EDGEWATER.

THOUGH THE SETTING MIGHT BE UNUSUAL, SOME FAMILIAR BEATS.

THE EVENING BEFORE THE EMPIRE'S NEW MILLENNIUM, A YOUNG MAN CHOSEN FOR SACRIFICE BEGS HIS PRIEST FATHER TO RECONSIDER, THEN RUNS OFF WITH THE EMPEROR'S DAUGHTER.

WITH THIS ALL LATINO CAST STRIPPED-DOWN PRODUCTION, A LOT OF FUN AND A LOT OF HEART.

>> SHALL KNEEL BEFORE YOU FOR AT DON YOU SHALL DIE TO SAVE THE WORLD.

>> I'M HONORED, YOUR HOLINESS, BUT SOMETHING HAS BEEN BOTHERING ME.

>> SINCE I MEXICAN BORN AND RAISED, I KNEW THAT ONE OF MY DUTIES WAS TO SHOW HOW PRETTY AND BEAUTIFUL EVERYTHING IS.

EVERYTHING IS WORN.

>> EVERY DAY SACRIFICE AMEN.

>> TO PLAY WITH TEXTURES AND TAKING NOTE OF THE NATURAL MATERIALS WITH COTTON AND COLOR OF THE SOUNDS AND OF THE METAL END OF THESE THAT THEY HAVE AND MAKING.

>> WOULD YOU COME ONE WITH THE SON?

>> WE DON'T HAVE ALL OF THE INFORMATION THAT IS ACCURATE.

WE HAVE TO USE SOME PART OF OUR KNOWLEDGE.

IT MIGHT BE RIGHT OR WRONG, BUT WE CAN MAKE THE CONNECTIONS WITH WHAT WE FEEL AND SEE AND WHAT WE CAN IMAGINE AND WHAT THIS GIVES YOU.

BEING IN A SCRIPT WRITTEN BY TWO AMERICAN PEOPLE MAKES ME VERY HAPPY TO BRING MEXICO STORY LIKE THIS ONE IN THE U.S. AND ALSO MAKES ME HAPPY THAT THEY CHOSE ME TO SHARE THIS PRODUCTION OR CREATION AND WE CAN BUILD EVERYTHING TOGETHER.

IT'S VERY COOL.

>> THE CHOSEN ONE.
