Compañía de Teatro de la Universidad de Antofagasta
The company
Almost six decades of national and international trajectory
The company was founded in 1962 by Pedro de la Barra under the name Teatro Del Desierto. In 1964, it was renamed Compañía de Teatro de la Universidad de Chile sede Antofagasta. In 1981, when the headquarters of the Universidad de Chile merged with the headquarters of the Universidad Técnica de Estado, the Universidad de Antofagasta was born, so the group changed its name again, and, since then, it has been known as Compañía de Teatro de la Universidad de Antofagasta. Nowadays it is recognized as the only professional university theater company between Arica and Santiago. With 59 years of national and international trajectory, and more than 120 productions premiered, it is recognized both inside and outside Chile, which is reflected in their invitation to different festivals such as FITZA, FITAM, FETEF, Temporales Teatrales, Lluvias de Teatro, FITDANZ, and others in Argentina, Colombia, Ecuador and Paraguay. The company is directed by Raúl Rocco Rojas.
-Because it is a play that illustrates the remainders of a near and still painful past: the present of dozens of military personnel who participated in the crimes committed during the dictatorship and who have not been prosecuted by the justice. A situation that, causes divisions even within families.
-Because the theater company of the Universidad de Antofagasta is one of the oldest and longest-running theatrical groups in Chile, with presence in several international festivals, and because it stays at the forefront of artistic practices in northern Chile.

-Porque es una obra que lleva a escena las esquirlas de un pasado cercano y aún doloroso: el presente de decenas de militares que participaron de los crímenes cometidos en la dictadura y que no han sido procesados por la justicia. Una situación que, como se ve en la obra, provoca divisiones hasta al interior de su propia familia.
-Para ver el nuevo trabajo de la Compañía de la Universidad de Antofagasta, una de las agrupaciones teatrales más antiguas y con más trayectoria del teatro chileno, con presencia en distintos festivales internacionales y que está a la vanguardia de las prácticas artísticas en el norte de Chile.
