This show marked Lucero's first stage performance, taken after she rejected a role in the soap opera Amor real with director Carla Estrada.[1]
Regina was born from the union of Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl volcanoes in the 50s. She is a dakini with supernatural powers inherited from the Dalai Lama, which allow her to dominate forces of nature. This is discovered by Tagdra Rimpoche, her mentor, along with the Dalai Lama, after performing some tests.
