Performances will begin March 6 for a 10-week limited run through May 17. Tickets are now on sale at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.telecharge.com\/Mexodus-tickets?AID=AFF000009900&amp;utm_source=affiliate&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;utm_campaign=AFF000009900\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Telecharge<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The show is inspired by the real-life stories of African Americans who escaped bondage by going south into Mexico. Creators Robinson and Quijada also play all the characters in the show, and play all the music\u2014with the help of a looping station that allows them to create the arrangements for every song in the show live in front of the audience every night.<\/p>\n<p>Audible will release an audio recording of the show as an Audible Original June 18.
