Two short plays in one night at the theatre: Ofelia and Assault

Between Elsinore and the river is Ophelia, Hamlet’s loving fiancée, who returns to the stage to offer us a different view of her story. Ofelia tells us about her devotion to that prince who said he was crazy with doubts, crazy with grief over the death of his father. She returns from the dead to talk to us about life, about love, about her devotion to the projects of a young man who is deluded. She comes to give us her version of that Denmark and of the Hamlet of our days.

Assault, a dramatic and absurd comedy, written and directed by Eddy Díaz Souza. Two women who work in a night-club decide to assault the spectators with the intention of obtaining extra income that will allow them to solve their debts and aspirations, a delirious situation that pushes them to share their painful realities, their desires, dreams and opinions on art and politics. Performed by: Belkis Proenza and Paloma Márquez.
