The Meaning Behind Our Logo…
We’re often asked what our logo means. As a theatre dedicated to Latinx stories, we searched for a logo that would represent the fearless, bold, audacious theatre we were interested in making. Telling a story through theatre is a work of the whole being, here and now.
To the ancient Maya, the day sign Caban literally meant “earth” and represented the vital force within the earth itself (earth’s rhythm) and also within the human body (heart rhythm). Caban also represented the movement or motion of the earth in the form of an earthquake or the surge of heart blood in the human body.
Audaz is translated in English as audacity or audacious, which reminded us of an earthquake that moves you and wakes you.
Teatro Audaz is the Caban in San Antonio
