Fermin Cabal's Tejas Verdes by Collide Theatre
The most important human right is the right to life itself. And then prohibition to torture follows. No human being could argue the opposite. But what happens when the wrong people are found or even elected in the wrong positions?
Fermín Cabal's play is a haunting and compelling piece of art about humanitys brutal ability to cause pain and horror. Tejas Verdes, an idyllic seaside resort is turned into a torture camp during General Pinochets dictatorship in Chile. The play focuses on the story of one woman, Colorina, who comes to symbolise the 3,000 who were violently killed during the Pinochet regime that lasted from 1973 to 1990.
Forty-four years after the coup, we felt the need to tell this story again. Violating vital human rights should not be acceptable. Forty-four years later, we wonder whether our world has changed much
The time is the present or even the future?
