Mexodus uncovers the untold story of the Underground Railroad that ran south into Mexico. Creators Brian Quijada and Nygel D. Robinson perform this groundbreaking hip-hop musical, using live instruments to build a soundscape live each night incorporating looping to layer rhythms, melodies, and harmonies to create full arrangements on the spot each performance.
The
New York Times Critic’s Pick returns.
After a hit run at Audible’s Minetta Lane Theatre,
Mexodus comes back to Off-Broadway for a strictly limited engagement.
Hailed by
The New York Times as “an electrifying theatrical experience” and named “the season’s first must-see musical” by
The Wrap,
Mexodus is a thrilling, genre-defying hip-hop musical created and performed by Brian Quijada and Nygel D. Robinson, and directed by David Mendizábal.
Told through live looping, bold storytelling, and sick beats,
Mexodus reimagines the Underground Railroad heading south to Mexico—unearthing a powerful, untold chapter of American history. Called “thrilling” by
The Washington Post and “genius in motion” by the
San Francisco Chronicle, this is theatre you feel in your body and your bones.
Don’t miss the return of one of the most acclaimed musicals of the season.
