¡Bocón!

by Lisa Loomer

Woven in a folkloric Mexican storytelling style, Miguel, a 12 year old boy, celebrates a fiesta in the plaza, shakes in fear as his mother tells the myth of La Llorona, and works in the fields with his father. Tragically, the dominate soldier force abducts his parents which sends Miguel's voice fleeing from his body. Running into the strange world of the forest, Miguel befriends the real persona behind La Llorona. While searching to regain his voice, masked characters both help and hinder Miguel. Finding the courage to dream, he succeeds and shares his story.
