Ballet 5:8, Chicago’s premiere female and minority-led ballet company, presents its critically acclaimed production La Llorona. This powerful performance reframes the legend of "La Llorona" through a deeply human lens—illuminating the often-overlooked struggles of postpartum depression and maternal mental health.

This one-afternoon-only performance is followed by an optional talkback panel featuring artists and mental health professionals, offering space for reflection and dialogue.
The event is part of a broader community engagement initiative with Latina women’s groups, postpartum health advocates, university departments, and cultural organizations throughout the south suburbs.
