At sunset, after a couple of lovers have a fierce argument on the beach of Gulpiyuri, a romantic ghost called Analphabet appears over the sea to narrate her story and sing songs to the couple’. Analphabet is the creation of a myth that highlights the need to take extreme care in couple relationships that have been mistreated; to see what poetry can do for the wound.
Stage director, playwright and performer of his own drifts. Graduate in directing and dramaturgy and art history. In 2009 he began his path from a bastard and peripheral dramaturgy. Lately his path has stopped at the idea of understanding the stage as the space of desire and the romantic relationship with the spectator. His latest play, Analphabet, premiered in 2024; the book Siempre vengo de noche, which includes the text of the play, was published after the premiere.
