UNBOUND: a performance ritual
UNBOUND is a performance ritual and community-powered project that honors the Genízaro people and uplifts their legacies. Genízaros were Native people of many tribes, often women and children, who were captured and forced into slave labor during the Spanish colonization of present-day New Mexico. Their stories are often left out of a contemporary understanding of New Mexican history.

The Devil and 40 Chickens by Jose Garcia Davis
THE DEVIL AND FORTY CHICKENS
A one-man show in one act
Written and performed by José Garcia Davis
The Devil and Forty Chickens is a humorous one-man theatre show about the antics of three brothers in the village of Bernalillo, New Mexico. Recalling his wild youth, Cristobal tells this hilarious story about when he and his two teenage brothers raid a chicken farm near the Rio Grande River. They stuff forty chickens into a coop and after heaving the huge coop onto the back of their papa’s old pickup, they make their escape along the rough dirt backroads. When the Devil turns up and hisses his temptations into Cristobal’s ear, things get even wilder and the play takes on the dimensions of a good old fashioned tall tail.
