## About this plan

Orinoco: The Capybara's Journey arrives in Bogotá as one of the most appealing musical theater shows for kids this year. The show won the 2026 Children's Theatrical Creation Contest at Teatro Mayor Julio Mario Santo Domingo, and that award already tells you plenty about the quality.

The story follows Chigüi, a curious capybara, along with Totó the golden frog and Ramiro the hummingbird. The three characters team up to save their home from deforestation, pollution, and poaching, guided by the ancestral voice of Mother Earth. All of this comes to life with live music, folk dance, and plenty of color on stage.

It is a great pick for a family outing. Little ones love the characters, and grown-ups enjoy a show featuring joropo, vallenato, cumbia, and currulao. A performance to sing along, learn something new, and celebrate the natural richness of Colombia.
