Cruising the Camino Real with Larry Torres
A feature on Las Posadas in New Mexico detailing the nine night Christmas ritual. Actors reenact Joseph Mary and the Christ Child with neighbors singing prayers and nightly rejections until the inn welcomes them. The piece notes origin in El Coloquia de San José and ties to Franciscan traditions and local folk theater history.
