The path to freedom didn’t only lead north. MEXODUS is a thrilling hip-hop musical that uncovers a hidden chapter of American history – when thousands of enslaved people fled across the Rio Grande to freedom in Mexico. Created by Brian Quijada and Nygel D. Robinson, this electrifying two-person tour de force blends live-looped music, storytelling, and raw theatricality to follow a freedom seeker and an unlikely ally forging a bond that transcends borders. Written by Brian Quijada and Nygel D. Robinson. Choreographed by Tony Thomas. Directed by David Mendizábal.
