El Milagro del Recuerdo, A Holiday Mariachi Opera, Takes Center Stage At San Diego Opera

San Diego Opera presents El Milagro del Recuerdo (The Miracle of Remembering), a heartwarming holiday mariachi opera full of family traditions, love, and dreams of a better tomorrow. The beauty of opera blends with mariachi to tell this heartwarming pastorela story with the San Diego Symphony Orchestra.

Sung in Spanish (with English and Spanish text projected above the stage), this new mariachi opera, a prequel to 2013’s Cruzar la Cara de la Luna, lovingly explores family traditions in the face of life-changing decisions and dreams of something more.

To make things even more festive, there will be a variety of family-friendly activities — pre and post-performance — in the plaza, including a live muralist, music, holiday decorations and possibly even an appearance from Santa. Additionally, there will be delectable holiday-themed food items like Tamales, Mexican Sweet Treats, Mexican Hot Chocolate, a specialty cocktail and more.
