The Teatro Clandestino describes itself as a 'journalistic' theater group. They produce art drawn from headlines and everyday conversations in Mexico. The theater itself is a small, intimate space that probably seated only around 50 people. I saw a production called 'Todos Somos Marcos' by Vicente Leñero, the Artistic Director of the company. Tickets for this show were very hard to come by. A friend of mine got me a ticket. The show was fantastic. The audience did not exactly participate, but they were incorporated into the set and storyline. The actors did not ignore our presence. This is a very innovative sort of theater. I was very lucky to get a ticket while I was in the city. This play was, by far, my favorite experience of the trip.
