A world premiere of “El
Muerto Vagabundo,” a play fo-
cusing on homelessness by the
Portland Latino Theater group
Milagro as part of its annual
Day of the Dead celebration, is
now playing through Nov. 6
The production was inspired
by an obituary of a homeless
veteran without friends and
family. It follows the Kid, a
near homeless orphan who is
looked after by his older sister
and makes a Day of the Dead
offering to summon his parents.
What he encounters instead is a
vagabundo; a tramp who mis-
takenly takes the offering for
himself. As the kid chases after
him, he ends up under a bridge,
in a place called The Under-
world where the forgotten, the
lost and the dispossessed (Los
Olvidados) lay down for a
night’s rest.
“El Muerto Vagabundo’
plays at El Centro Milagro, 525
S.E. Stark St. Tickets are avail-
able at milagro.org or 503-236-
7253. Discounts for students,
seniors, veterans, groups of 15
or more, and residents with Or-
egon Trail cards.
Members of local agencies
that serve the homeless popu-
lation will be distributing in-
formation and resources in the
lobby throughout the play’s
run.
