La Catrina
Laenye Productions

Step into the enigmatic world of ‘La Catrina’, a magical realism production delving into life, death, and the mysterious in-between.
Join three souls on an extraordinary journey of self-discovery, guided by the captivating figure of La Catrina, who will decide their fate. As the Latin community’s voice is amplified, immerse yourself in a thought-provoking and entertaining theatrical spectacle, exploring the richness of their culture.

Laenye Productions is a live theatre production company that has operated in Tāmaki Makaurau since 2021.

Our kaupapa is around creating spaces for migrants to create and tell their stories with a large number of our projects focusing on Latinx migrants’ stories.

We believe our traditional ways of telling stories are something to be proud of, and although we use this heritage when generating our projects we are also interested in bending, breaking, blending, and re-constructing forms to create something new and unique.

Laenye is made up of Matias Avaca (Argentina), Daniel Fernandez (Spain) and China Gonzalez (Mexico)
