THE FESTIVAL

With 13 shows of 8 plays in 9 locations of the municipality, “Vagamundos: Fiesta del Teatro en Pátzcuaro” seeks to spread and strengthen theatrical production in the region.

We are convinced that theater can help our reality be more peaceful and supportive.

 

Vagamundos is a joint effort between local performing artists, the Department of Culture of the Pátzcuaro City Council and the Ministry of Culture of Michoacán through the Centro Cultural Antiguo Colegio Jesuita.

Gilgamesh

O'Hea - Soncin

Gilgamesh, the oldest hero known to humanity, the hero from whom all other heroes will be born – from the Greeks Heracles and Achilles, to the modern Superman and Luke Skywalker. The Epic Journey of Gilgamesh is humanity's oldest literary work; It is the story of a tyrant king who becomes a just king; It is the story of an enemy who becomes the best friend; It is the story of a wild man who becomes a civilized man. This is the story of the man who wanted to achieve eternal life and who failed but who, by trying, gained the wisdom of experience. This is the story of Gilgamesh, told in 30 minutes in a space of two square meters, using theater as language.

The Turkey Monologue

O'Hea - Soncin

A naive and comical turkey discovers deep aspects of his being that were hitherto unknown. So unknown that he is forced to consider the nonexistence of his being, the fragility and illusion that are his personality, his "pavonality." With the pillars that support his identity collapsed, he has no choice but to ask himself: “Who am I and why am I?” A lie that feeds itself and convinces itself to exist?” …this and more goes through the head of a turkey. Wow, they are stupid!

Death is a bitch

Natalia Goded / Los Weros Teatro

The story begins the day the world witnesses the arrest of Death and the trials that condemn her to life imprisonment on charges of genocide, ecocide and all violent deaths carried out in recent centuries. The approach is direct: the crisis of the human through the crisis of the vision of death and life itself.

Lake Royalty

Vagamundos Collective

While the Queen is dying (an allegory of the current state of Lake Pátzcuaro), the court jester enters an existential crisis.

This piece of street theater is a growth of the group of creators that make up Vagamundos.
