American Pastorela: The Road to the White House is a satirical take on the nativity story. When the Hernandez family in Sonora hears the news of the birth of the baby Jesus, they set off on foot to Phoenix to catch the light rail to Bethlehem. Guided by Bartolo, a curandero (faith healer) who talks to God through his I-Phone, the Hernandez family encounters an odd array of characters along the way, including twin brothers Monty and Harry Dystal, La Diabla (that's right, Satin's a chick), Barack Obama, Sarah Palin, John McCain and those irrepressible Clintons. This year's trip includes a stopover in the nation's capital for the inauguration. The show also features cameo appearances by local personalities, including Catherine Anaya, Gerardo Higginson, Alfredo Gutierrez and Danny Ortega, Bob Hope, Zorro, Speedy Gonzales, Raul Julia, Bambi and thousands more. Okay, we're kidding about everyone except Anaya, Higginson, Gutierrez and Ortega. Image Credit: Phil Soto
