Cañada de la Virgen: San Miguel’s Pyramid. Talk


Mon/Lun Ene/Jan 30, 3pm. Teatro Santa Ana Donations 60 pesos

There are probably thousands of pyramids in Mesoamerica, the majority of which have not been excavated.  Mesoamerica is a large area that extends from central Mexico to the northern boundaries of Central America.  It includes the southern part  of Mexico, Belize, Guatemala  and the western parts of El Salvador and Honduras.     The names of the ancient civilizations of Mesoamerica are well-known:  Aztec, Maya, Olmec, Teotihuacan, Toltec and Zapotec.  All of these cultures built pyramids.    Which one made San Miguel’s pyramid?   Actually, we are not supposed to have pyramids this far north.   Most diagrams of Mesoamerica place San Miguel de Allende outside of its northern  boundary.   Nevertheless, San Miguel has a pyramid.

When playwright and author of the Players Workshop current production of Boom, Peter Nachtrieb matriculated to Brown University, he planned to study theatre. During his sophomore year, however, an advisor suggested that becoming a playwright was not the most stable of career choices. Inspired by family scuba diving adventures, Peter declared a double major in theatre and biology and began exploring both fields side by side. As he studied cells and stagecraft, the two fields began to merge inside his head. He found drama in the history of scientific struggle.
Science has a power to change the world and how we perceive our place in it. But the public does not always accept those changes with open arms. In 1633, for example, Galileo was convicted of heresy and placed under house arrest for defending the Copernican structure of the universe. In 1864 Louis Pasteur’s germ theory debunked the myth of spontaneous generation, yet his technique for safe vaccination is still questioned by parents in pediatricians’ offices today.............
