The Paraguayan play "En Penumbras," written by Santiago Filártiga Lamar and directed by Carlos Arbués, premieres on May 22 at the Casa Argentina auditorium in Asunción. The production, featuring a cast of five actors, explores the discomfort and hypocrisies of a dinner between in-laws, continuing the author's style initiated in "A la luz" (2019).
Teatro
This Sunday, Asunción offers a varied program including guided tours of the Palacio de López, boat rides, craft fairs, and theatrical performances, such as the farewell of the comedy 'Nunca estuve en Dublín' and the return of the Ab Ovo group.
The play "Let's Speak Frankly," directed by Juan Hannes Bürgin, returns to the Instituto Cultural Paraguayo-Alemán - Goethe-Zentrum (ICPA-GZ) in May and June 2026. The work addresses the tensions between individual identity and social impositions, questioning the prefabricated images that distance human beings from their primary impulses, such as love and sex. Performances will take place in the Salón Rolando Rasmussen, with tickets priced at G. 30,000.
