Las Nuevas Tamaleras is a charming Christmas play that has been a San Antonio holiday tradition since 1993, held at the Jo Long Theatre in San Antonio. Think of it as a holiday ritual for many local families, right up there with The Nutcracker and A Christmas Carol. Silvia, Josie and Patsy try their first tamalada, while the spirits of Dona Mercedes and Dona Juanita stir up laughs and drama in a playful battle over whose recipe makes the perfect tamal.
