Overview
Historia de un jabalí is a contemporary theatre piece that adapts a text by Gabriel Calderón. Two actors prepare to play Richard III, the king in Shakespeare's tragedy.
The production is based on a text by Uruguayan playwright Gabriel Calderón, adapted and directed by Chilean director Cristián Plana. On stage, Francisco Reyes and Marcelo Alonso play two performers who have spent their entire careers in supporting roles and who, when they take on the role of Shakespeare's king, face the challenge of building a ruthless character.
Over the course of that process, an outsized ego causes the similarities between the actors and the king to begin to surface. The piece reflects on the limits of ambition and on how far someone who believes they deserve something better can go.
The overall design is by Carolina Sapiain, and the general production is by Fundación Teatro a Mil. The staging focuses on the interplay between the two performers and the character they are trying to embody.
