Sala Tito Junco, Centro Cultural Bertolt Brecht
The Carlos Arniches 2008-winning play by
Amado del Pino (with Vi-Tal Teatro under the
direction of Alejandro Palomino) deals with
burning issues in today’s Cuban society, such
as ethics, the loss of values, the division of
families, the tension between stagnant thinking
and the renovating spirit and role of younger
generations

Estudio, Centro Cultural Bertolt Brecht
The Teatro de Bolsillo company and its director
Julio César Ramírez seem to have chosen to
rerun this play of the prolific playwright,
narrator and poet Reinaldo Montero. Based on
the novel Un mundo de cosas by José Soler
Puig, the living and the dead, myth and reality,
history and stories are combined in an
insightful questioning of absolute truths.

Café teatro, Centro Cultural Bertolt Brecht
Pequeño Teatro de La Habana reruns this
tragicomedy by Nobel Literature prize-winner
Samuel Beckett. Two men wait for Godot, a
character who never appears and who has
been the subject of innumerable
interpretations. Nothing seems to happen, just
the tedium, but the members of the audience
can each give their own explanation to this
classic of the theatre of the absurd.
4-6 October, 6:00 pm / 2011
Sala Adolfo Llauradó
Teatro Punto Azul presents an adaptation by
Omar Bilbao of Plinio Marcos’s play “Dos
perdidos en una noche sucia,” in which a favela
is transmuted into a Cuban marginal
neighbourhood as setting to the violence and
sordidness in which the young characters live.
Opens 22 October. Sat, 8:30 pm; Sun, 5:00 pm /
2011
Teatro Fausto
Once again the recourse of the theatre within
the theatre proves its efficiency in this play by
Kelaya García with the Musical Habana
company, directed by the playwright. The story
tells how a musical revue is prepared for four
actresses and the many incidents along the
way.

Hamlet, príncipe de Dinamarca
Fri & Sat, 8:30 pm; Sun, 5:00 pm, October / 2011
Sala El Sótano
“To be or not to be--that is the question:
Whether ‘tis nobler in the mind to suffer the
slings and arrows of outrageous fortune or to
take arms against a sea of troubles, and by
opposing end them. To die--to sleep--no more.”
Hamlet’s speech will once again move
audiences in this play that delves into the ins
and outs of power, disloyalty, doubt. Performed
by the Máscara Laroye and Rita Montaner
theatre companies, its director, Giraldo Moisés
Cárdenas, has preferred a relatively
conventional production of Shakespeare’s
famous play.
