Sueños que danzan en el agua. Mestizas y mayas en el teatro de Conchi León

More than a decade ago, Yucatán playwright, director, and actress Conchi León appeared on the Mexican theatre scene, contributing voices originating in ancestral wisdom. From the perspective of contemporary art and aesthetics, as informed by the work of Nelly Richard, Néstor García Canclini, Jacques Rancière, and Walter Mignolo, among others, this article demonstrates the manner in which her plays have transcended traditional Yucatan drama, especially through a commitment to sustainability and social progress. León's artistic voice allows for marginalized voices to find a place on the stage as part of an "urgent theatre" that characterizes her long and varied career in Mérida and beyond.
