Malinche is a musical show for the whole family created by Nacho Cano. It tells the story of a woman who had the courage to change her destiny and unite two worlds. The masterpiece of the creator of Mecano is a celebration of Mexico, mestizaje, and our culture. An extraordinary stage production that blends the best melodies of Nacho Cano, creating a unique musical experience where flamenco, pop, and rock intertwine. Malinche brings together the best of theater, the power of a live concert, and the elegance of a contemporary ballet company.

Avenida de la República 17, Tabacalera, Ciudad de México, 06050

Did you know...?
In 1521, during the so-called Noche Triste ("Sad Night"), when the Spaniards and their allies were ambushed in Tenochtitlan, Pedro de Alvarado was the last to flee the city. To escape, he thrust a spear into the water and used it as a pole to vault over a canal, saving his life in a daring leap. That very spot—scene of one of the most astonishing episodes in our history—is now just a few meters away from the Frontón Theater. Coincidence… or divine providence?

About the Experience

What can I expect from the event? Malinche El Musical, the magnum opus of Nacho Cano, founder of the iconic Spanish group Mecano and creator of the most successful musical in Spanish, Hoy No Me Puedo Levantar, celebrates the birth of a unique people, the result of the fusion of two millenary cultures. This show highlights the importance of a new identity, born of the evangelization of America and the values that emerged from this historic encounter. The play honors the figure of the woman and is a tribute to Malinche; who with her courage and love knew how to balance the historical events of mestizaje, thus contributing to the formation of Mexico's identity. Malinche El Musical is a celebration of our roots, of mestizaje and Mexican culture, in an experience that brings together the best of theater, the strength of a live concert and the elegance of a contemporary ballet company.
