La Cueca is an original short play by Andrea Goldman that examines the idea of memory and forgiveness. Taking place in Pinochet’s Chile, two actors find themselves buried alive at the beginning of the play. As they fight against the obvious obstacles of running out of air, they also struggle with one another, attempting to unbury themselves from the heavy guilt and pain accumulated during the fifteen years of their marriage. The dialogue oscillates between realism and surrealism, mirroring the poet’s sanctuary of expression under censorship. And reflecting how at times it is easiest to face the harshest reality, as though it were only a dream.
