“Inferno”, the show that the playwright and actor Rafael Spregelburd presents at the Astros Theater, will continue on billboard on Wednesdays in October.

Produced by Andrea Stivel and Claudio Gelemur for Blueteam Group, the work is completed with Andrea Garrote, Violeta Urtizberea and Guido Losantos.

Tickets can be purchased at the ticket offices of the venue located on Corrientes Avenue 746 or through Entrance One.

Spregelburd and Garrote founded in 1994 The Company El Patron Vázquez, who carries this set forward, a text commissioned from Rafael Spregelburd by the Vorarlberger Landestheater Bregenz in Austria to celebrate the 500 years of Bosch.

Inspired by the eternal wonder of that motley painting, playful, moral, prophetic, the author designs a complex labyrinth about sin, the blame, virtue and torture of the soul, a kind of heptalogy in seven short asymmetric songs that take the expressive possibilities of the protagonists to the limit.

The work also has live music by Nicolás Varchausky (that moves between electroacoustics and performance), wardrobe by Lara Sol Gaudini and a space designed by Santiago Badillo (intervened for the occasion by the photography of Marcos López).

In “Hell”, the play will revolve around a journalist who travels to Santiago de Chile and wakes up somewhat confused. In that context, two catechists will get you out of bed to bring you urgent news: the Vatican has abolished hell.

Now that the specific place of condemnation for souls no longer exists as a place in itself but becomes just a word, turns out hell is everywhere.

Due, the only way to escape will be with seven keys; virtues to be learned: fe, esperanza, charity, temperance, Justice, prudence and fortitude.

According to Spregelburd, this work allowed him to “work once again on the permanent obsessions: the world as a creation of language, the chaos, the catastrophe, guilt and fraud.

Likewise, the author adds that before the proposal to carry out this work “I decided rather to bring hell as close as possible to our real experience. We are a country crossed by an infernal trauma, the dictatorship, and we are still figuring out how to babble outside of that taboo”.

“I am accompanied by a dream team of outrageous comedians to paint with an uncomfortable humor the darkest hours of our common hell. We have dedicated ourselves to the titanic task of tackling an impossible: weave stories with the scraps of a fabric torn by horror”, he explained.
