HE – First bilingual season at Theatre Works

by | Apr 10, 2024

A man returns to his childhood home, a small coastal town in post-civil war El Salvador— a place he swore to the ocean he’d never set foot in again.

HE is a coming-of-age tragedy about the treacherous waters of masculinity, homophobia, and love. About dad, the war, mum, the moon, the shadows of the past… still lingering. A story about sex, sin, Jesús, and the ocean.

Conceived, written and performed by Salvadoran-Australian theatre practitioner Rodrigo Calderón, HE is physical, vivid and delirious storytelling, with a cumbia heart-beat.

The performances on Friday 10 and Friday 17 will be in Spanish without English surtitles.

May 7 – 18
