Miami-Dade County Auditorium and Teatro Avante join forces to present International Children’s Day on Sunday, July 16, 2023 starting at 2:00 p.m., as part of the International Hispanic Theatre Festival of Miami and the Auditorium’s Hot Theatre Summer Series. The free event will feature rides, food, children’s activities, bilingual workshops and a family-friendly theatre performance presented in Spanish. The performance, "El Guardián De Los Cuentos" (The Guardian of Tales), is a dynamic play by the theatre company La Tartana Teatro from Madrid, Spain, which tells five different folktales using puppets and awe-inspiring sets.
