Magdalena Theater

I was surprised to learn that Magdalena (located about 20 miles west of Socorro, NM) has its own theater company. Even Socorro doesn't have a resident theater company (as far as I know). When I was a student at NM Tech in the 70's, we used to pass through Magdalena on the way to Kelly, to high grade the mines there for pretty copper-bearing minerals, but we never lingered long. I remember finally being able to recognize the (altogether obvious) image of Mary Magdalene on a mountainside (the town's namesake).

In July, London Frontier Theatre Company is presenting "Dogs!", Magdalena's answer to "Cats."
