About this event

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.

Un hombre regresa a su hogar de la infancia, un pequeño pueblo costero en El Salvador de la post-guerra civil, un lugar donde le juró al océano que nunca volvería.

‘ÉL’ es una tragedia sobre las traicioneras aguas de la masculinidad, la homofobia y el amor. Sobre papá, mamá, la luna, las sombras del pasado… aun merodeando. Una historia sobre el sexo, el pecado, Jesús y el oceano.

Concebida, escrita e interpretada por el actor de teatro Salvadoreño-Australiano Rodrigo Calderón, ‘ÉL’ es un delirante relato físico con latidos cumbieros.

Las presentaciones del Viernes 10 y Viernes 17 de Mayo seran en Español sin surtitulos en inglés.
