In the mountains of Guatemala the native peoples share an ancient legend with their children. Before sleeping, the child must tell her doll her trouble and while she sleeps, the doll will solve the problem.  Teresa, a young village girl, has one very BIG trouble – the fiery volcano god, Fuego, whose rumbles echo across the mountains. Can her Trouble Dolls help defeat him and rescue her brother, Paco?

ArtReach's 'Legend of the Trouble Dolls' is a captivating tale of Latin American myths and culture.  The small cast script is great for touring to schools.  Audience Participation.  Mayan Indian characters are swept into the enchantment of this children's legend.  "Under the earth Fuego is grumbling and rumbling. He is angry and when he is angry his blood runs hot!"  -- Papa, Legend of the Trouble Dolls
