HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY AT MILAGRO WITH DANCE FOR A DOLLAR



 Dance for a Dollar it’s a perfect show to celebrate with the Woman Who Knows Best, aka your Mom!  This Sunday, May 12th is Mother’s Day, bring your mom to Dance for a Dollar! 

The show is filled with stories based on the lives of the women who dance for money in NYC nightclubs. Interviewed by creators Daniel Jáquez and Mariana Carreño King, many of these women had immigrated to the States to create better lives for their families, leaving behind the comforts of a familiar way of life for the promise of opportunity.  At the nightclubs in Queens, Daniel and Mariana spoke with a woman whose daughter was also dancing in the club that night.  Another said her daughter would not follow in her footsteps.  A third recounted the story of her crossing through the desert to create a better life for herself and her baby.  Unfortunately her son died crossing the dessert into the US.   These stories are woven with music and dance, and the strength of women’s hearts to survive and thrive even in the most challenging circumstances.

Bring your mom to Milagro’s Dance for a Dollar this Sunday and we’ll honor her with a special Mother’s Day surprise at the Concessions Stand!
