“To us it is so important to tell, especially to the young people, the story of Costa Rica in a different way and with fresher language, using a music genre they can understand,” Mario Campos, producer and co-creator of the opera with Jorge Urbina, told The Tico Times. "We have heroes who have stood out throughout history."
A museum with lively theatrical tours through Costa Rican history takes things to the next level with an overnight camp that lets schoolkids brave the ghosts of the past.
Every Wednesday at 1 p.m. and Saturday at 2 p.m., five figures from Costa Rica's past lead us through Alajuela's Juan Santamaría museum and cultural center.
