Between April 2014 and October 2016, Loco7 created a four part series called The Adventures of Seucy and Boto in the Amazon Jungle. These family friendly events were adapted to retell mythological stories from the Amazon Jungle, showing us how to protect the plants and animals of the rainforest from harm and exploitation and inspiring us to respect and care for the mighty jungle so it will continue sharing its wonders with us, along with the value of friendship.

These events were originally created in association with La MaMa Kids, a series of creative workshops and performances for the young and the young at heart. Through this program, master artists from La MaMa perform family-friendly shows and teach theater crafts in workshops that encourage imaginative play and hands-on learning.

Seucy & Boto continues to be performed throughout New York City at various venues and schools. If you are interested in hosting an event, please contact us at info@loco7.org.
