Jorge Mateus An Ecuadorian Dramaturgy of Migration

Abstract

Theater, as a form of community expression, constitutes an important testimony to social processes and conflicts. Emigration is present in the dramaturgy and staging of numerous authors and directors. In this case, we focus our attention on The Trilogy How We Are, by director, playwright, and actor Jorge Mateus, in which he reveals, with beautiful dramatic poetry, the uncertainty and destructuring that migration entails in Ecuador.
