The Day of the Dead is meant to welcome the dead back which is different from Halloween, because Halloween is a holiday that is just trying to scare people. [That's actually not historically accurate; Halloween was the night before All Saint's Day, and has a rich history, but you don't need to get into that. You could just say it is different and leave it at that. :-)] The play is set in modern times. For people who don't know about Dia de Los Muertos, they learn a Mexican tradition that is celebrated for two nights. The meaning of the play is no one dies unless they are forgotten.
