'La Razon Blindada' Extends Performance Schedule
In his internationally acclaimed stage work, La Razón Blindada, Argentine-born playwright/director Aristides Vargas infuses Miguel de Cervantes' classic novel, El Quijote with Franz Kafka's, The Truth About Sancho Panza, and testimonies by Chicho Vargas and other political prisoners held in the 1970's at the Rawson Prison during Argentina's dictatorship.
Two political prisoners, oppressed by physical and emotional abuse, find solace in meeting every Sunday at dusk to tell the story of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza. Their storytelling unravels amidst the extreme limitations imposed by their condition of inmates in a maximum security prison. The production features Jesus Castaños-Chima, Tony Duran and Arturo Diaz de Sandy,
