📖 Roberto Bolaño's universe on stage

The performance puts forward an expanded dramaturgy where theatre, literature, music, image, and performance intertwine closely. Rather than presenting a conventional adaptation, the production decomposes and rewrites excerpts from the Chilean author's novels, interviews, and writings directly through the stage.

On stage, Rodrigo Bolzan embodies the multifaceted voice of Bolaño in an artistic exercise of memory, fiction, poetics, and politics that challenges standard forms of scenic representation.
