Blackbird is a text written in 2005 by Scottish dramaturge David Harrower, celebrated around the world, winner of multiple awards (Laurence Olivier Award for Best New Play; three Tony nominations). The play has been staged in circuits such as the West End and Broadway. Now, it is the acclaimed Argentine director Claudio Tolcachir who will present - as part of Santiago a Mil 2022- a version starring Chilean actors Néstor Cantillana and Carolina Arredondo. Both will bring to life a transgressive story showcasing a painful dialogue between two tormented individuals: Ray, 55, receives a visit from Una, 27. Fifteen years earlier, when Una was a 13-year-old girl, they were involved in an episode that changed their lives forever. The past returns in this harrowing reunion when Una has become a woman and Ray has changed his name.
