Shows and Scheduling

Though Colibri performs year round, the busiest times of year for us begin in March with the Danzantes Unidos Festival. Performance requests pick up again with the beginning of Pride Season (June to the end of Summer) . After the bulk of Pride performances we move to our Hispanic Heritage and Muertos season where we set our shows for Dia De Muertos and Hispanic Heritage Month. We usually finish our year with a Christmas in the Park performance and New Years Celebrations. 

Colibris will be expected to have a white dress shirt for masculine presenting people, and white peasant blouses for feminine presenting people. Boot roles also require black dress pants. Skirt roles require the official Colibri fondo. State specific costumes will be provided by Colibri, with the exception of white and black dress pants. A makeup tutorial will be provided for those who wear makeup.
