Folks, the purpose of this thread is to present this "rather famous" play that has been around for several years, has won numerous awards all around Latin America and is really worth the price of admission and will entertain you and make you think about many things.
I went to see this play on Sunday night at a school gym in Heredia (the play was put on to earn a little money for a retirement center here in Heredia that is in need of money, the home has dozens of old people and has a large debt). This play, I believe is not regularly done anywhere (and if it is, someone can point it out). The play is a monologue done by Cesar Melendez, he is a Nicaraguan inmigrant that has faced many troubles since arriving at the Nicaragua-Costa Rica border. For about 2 plus hours he talks to the Jesus crucifix you see above... The play is worth it, trust me, if you get a chance to go see it (they put it on for different reasons like I pointed out before) go. You will not regret it. The play is in Spanish but I think you will still understand most of it if you have a basic understanding of the language.
He will make you laugh, he will make you think and you just might end up teary eyed at the end. Very strong performance in my opinion and MOST definitely worth any time or money you might put into going to see it.
Any opinions or comments are welcome.
Slim.
