The area's only international theater festival! As always, this year's festival combines the vibrancy and sauciness of the New World with the introspection and avant-garde of the Old.
Two beings struggle to be one, in the essential communion between
Man and Woman. Theatrically visual, figurative; an exquisite,
intangible offering which one must decipher in confession with one’s
own heart and in the intimacy of one’s own soul.

Oh, Sarah!
by Ariel Mastandrea
directed
by Bernardo Galli
A person who reinvented herself in the midst of personal drama,
capable of traveling unmarked paths, fascinating multitudes with her

paying homage to theater and to Woman.
