Event Details

The Dance of the Huehues (old men)  in Tlaxcala, Mexico is one with magnificent masks and hats.  It derives from the 1500's when the indigenous people of Mexico perceived the dress and actions of the Spanish conquistadors to be silly and loved to make fun of their square dances and other activities. Come and enjoy a taste of this fantastic dances performed by students with family ties with Tlaxcala.
