Metamorphosis Arte - The Migration of the Monarch Butterfly
“La Migracion de las Monarcas” is a bilingual interactive puppet show using puppets, theater, dance, music and graphic arts to illustrate the history of the migration of the monarch butterflies. The monarchs migrate each year from the mountains of Michoacan, Mexico, traveling through the U.S. and into Canada. As they travel and lay their eggs, the process of metamorphosis occurs and they return to Mexico with a new generation of butterflies. While tracing the migration of the monarch butterflies, our story develops various metaphors relating to international relations and communication, the US/Mexico Border wall, agriculture, pollution and resource conservation. The show is for all ages but attracts many children with its colorful puppets and dancing.
