The tour of women no longer cry of Shakira faces new adjustments after the suspension of the concert scheduled for June 13 in San Antonio, Texas. The decision was made after an inspection detected a structural failure in the installation of the scenario, supplied by an external company. The production team evaluated the situation and prioritized the security of all involved, forced to postpone the presentation, whose capacity was exhausted.
While the San Antonio show remains without new date, the tour calendar is reorganized. In Houston, preparations advance normally for the series of concerts that starts on June 17. In the case of Los Angeles, the original date of the concert suffered a modification, from June 20 to August 4. This adjustment responds to the social context that California lives, where protests intensify in rejection of migratory raids that have turned on the debate on human rights and public policies.
Shakira not only leads an ambitious artistic project, he also uses his visibility to pronounce on social issues. In recent interviews, he shared reflections related to his immigration experience, marked by his arrival in the United States at an early age. In his statements, he highlighted the contribution of migrants in the construction of nations and the need for human solutions against the complexity of the migratory phenomenon.
Changes in the tour not only arise for technical reasons. Current circumstances also promote the singer to reaffirm her commitment to social causes. With each presentation, the show becomes a space not only musical, but also of public positioning in the face of matters of international relevance.
While the production reorganizes the pending dates, the attention is concentrated in the next presentations, waiting for each show to advance with the necessary conditions to preserve the integrity of the public, the technicians and the artist. The tour continues under technical and social observation, in the middle of a panorama that transcends the musical.
