A Hip-Hop remix about the Underground Railroad that went south into Mexico

You know the story of the Underground Railroad that ran North—but this show takes you on the path that ran South, revealing the untold journey of thousands who escaped slavery by crossing the Rio Grande into Mexico.

This groundbreaking theatrical experience follows a freedom seeker and an unlikely ally as they forge a remarkable bond that transcends borders.

‘To watch Robinson and Quijada layering so many musical influences, one instrument at a time, is to witness genius in motion. Both artists bring a unique perspective and remind us that despite different skin tones, we can work in solidarity to make beautiful music…Once the musical’s ferocity is set in motion, there’s no going back.’ —San Francisco Chronical

“Quijada and Robinson rap their hearts out…This live-looping musical, which pivots from reggaeton and rap to gospel, often sweeps you away with its sheer sonic power.” —Bay Area News Group

“Exhilarating! An electrifying live-looped concert experience!”—DC Theater Arts
