La Llorona On The Blue Line at El Salon Theatre

La Llorona on the Blue Line by Mabelle Reynoso is an immersive play that interweaves multiple historical timelines aboard San Diego’s Blue Line trolley, haunted by La Llorona—a spectral embodiment of maternal grief, injustice, and memory. Set in light rail train cars from 1920, 1946, and 1982, each era unfolds as a chilling vignette, revealing hidden truths and long-buried pain as La Llorona traverses time and space. Through ghostly encounters and eerie reckonings, this immersive play invites audiences to board different train cars, experiencing how the past lingers in unexpected ways. Here, the Blue Line becomes a liminal space where truth surfaces and spirits seek justice to wonder if La Llorona is not a monster but a mirror—asking who the real monsters are, and reminding us that memory cannot be shackled.
