Huerta’s Passion for Advocacy and Community

Recently, Huerta showed his support for the re-premiere of “Cuentos Para No Dejar de Soñar”, produced by Cabaret Loaria Kids at Teatro “El Vicio” in Mexico City. The play incorporates a blend of elements of cabaret with complex themes such as diversity, racism, gender-based violence, children’s rights, and environmental awareness.


During the premiere, Huerta stressed the significance of such productions for children, inviting the audience to immerse themselves in this entertaining experience. He shared that it’s a theater production for children where they will hear stories about people who have changed history and emphasized that those stories showcase bravery and positive role models. In his opinion, children might embrace these topics more easily. Also, parents can learn how to discuss them with their children and continue to grow and understand them together.

Fostering Future Storytellers with Plans for Writing Workshops

As a father of two girls, he drew from his own experiences, where his father encouraged him to participate in acting workshops. Huerta strongly believes in the transformative power of encouraging creative expression in children. This is not the first time he has supported such causes. In the past, he has participated in sessions of the “Semilleros Creativos” program. They offer artistic training to children and young people in vulnerable situations.

Huerta is a vocal advocate for important and sensitive issues such as racism. Last year, during a conference, children shared their struggles with societal beauty standards and feelings of non-acceptance, Huerta reassured them with sincerity, stating, “Ugliness lies in the eyes of others, not within you, because every single one of you is beautiful.”

To amplify new voices, Huerta intends to initiate writing workshops for children by providing them a platform to express their authentic stories. His dedication as a parent and a hardworking actor consistently drives his support for cultural events and empowerment of children’s talents. Therefore, his work serves as a powerful example of the transformative capacity of the arts and the profound positive impact that public figures can have on shaping a more diverse and empathetic future for generations to come.
