La ciudad de los camiones (1918), offers a very lively and sparkling testimony of the urban transformations of Mexico City towards the end of the armed struggle in the country and in order to expose, no longer reflections and concerns about political life and the Mexican revolution, but rather to review a singular event: the emergence of bus lines in the city. Its authors were Pablo Prida and Carlos Ortega, notable authors of political reviews theater plays in the transition from the Porfiriato to the Revolution and to the post-revolutionary period. The author of the music was Manuel Castro Padilla. In this article we propose to assess the humorous and theatrical contributions that this singular work of the theatrical review by Prida y Ortega, makes on his bus tour of Mexico City in 1918.
