It seemed to me a simple question. 'What happens in this dance-drama? What is the storyline, the narrative?' I am met by puzzlement. The dancer explains that each such dance has its own set of instruments, its own special costumes and masks. For this one they use a simple, one-man marimba and the costumes come from the nearby town of Chichicastenango
