In an extraordinary neighbourhood of Puerto Candelaria lives Macha, a nice and hardworking cockroach, who dreams of becoming a singer while working in her father’s vegetable store. When everything seems perfect, the Machado family must face the threat of an imminent closure due to alleged health problems. A situation that is not only affecting the Machado family but all the inhabitants of the Matorrales neighbourhood. With the help of the gang they embark on a talent show that promises to be the economic solution to avoid the closure of the store while in the process proving to themselves how special they can be. This Candelaria fable wants to convey messages, metaphors and positive symbolism, in the unique and internationally recognised style of the group. In this case the bugs, those sticky animals, with countless legs, fangs and sometimes furry, are the protagonists of this musical staging, with songs inspired by current Latino popular culture. Songs that speak of these beings not from a plaintive perspective but from an empowered one, full of rhythm, melody and lots of fun, always inviting a smile or laughter due to the originality of their poetry. In 2019, Puerto Candelaria ventures to explore the old dream of carrying out a project aimed at the smallest inhabitants of the imaginary world: children.
