Based in a century-old house in Santa María la Ribera, Casa Hechale is a cultural centre bringing together artistic residencies, training, research, and public programmes, supporting artistic development and exchange between Mexico, the United States, and the wider international community.
Two- and four-week stays provide time, accommodation, working space, and artistic dialogue. The residency offers scheduled access to rehearsal and working spaces, individual meetings with the artistic team and an artistic advisor, orientation and practical support from a Community Manager, invitations to weekly cultural activities, introductions to Mexico City's artistic community, opportunities to share work in progress through an Open House, and residency documentation and communication support.
The programme welcomes individual artists, duos, and small collaborations working in theatre, acting, directing, playwriting, dramaturgy, and literary translation; film, screenwriting, and moving image; dance, choreography, and movement; set, costume, lighting, and sound design; music and composition in relation to live performance; performance art and interdisciplinary practice, including visual art that engages with theatre, film, or performance; and arts education and artistic research across these fields. Applications are open internationally to emerging and established artists, including artists based in Washington State.
The centre brings together a black box theatre, rehearsal and creation spaces, a gallery, and Salón Cha, a space for reading and conversation. Access to specific spaces, technical requirements, and proposals for readings or presentations are discussed in advance and subject to availability. The programme operates in English and Spanish.
Applying is free. Participation fees vary by residency duration and accommodation. Partial scholarships are available under the programme's published eligibility conditions. Following admission, Casa Hechale can provide an acceptance letter to support applications for external funding.
