Mexico comes to the @royalcourttheatre!
Don`t miss A Migrant Ball of Thread by Sonia Gregorio
Translated by Sophie Stevens
Directed by Mariana Gándara
Thursday 25th January 7.00pm

This is the story of four women, in a place very similar to an ant’s nest. Every year, a man leaves and promises to return with the prospect of a better life. Every year, a woman is left waiting. This is a community in rural Oaxaca.A place where prayers are stitched into handkerchiefs. Where daughters only know their fathers through phone calls. Where wives are married to ghosts.

Mexico comes to the @royalcourttheatre!
Don`t miss Field Studies by Sara Pinedo
Translated by Daniel Goldman
Directed and performed by Sara Pinedo
Wednesday 24th January 7.00pm

This series of actions, performed by writer/maker Sara Pinedo, shed new light on the real-life cases of forced disappearances, searches, denunciations and resistance in Guanajuato, Mexico. This piece of educational archive theatre is both protest and testimony. This is a reminder that the search for the ‘disappeared’ must continue in multiple languages, both artistic and every day.

Don`t miss Black Horses Are Massive by Bárbara Esmenia
Translated by Almiro Andrade
Directed by Debbie Hannan
Thursday 18th January 7.00pm
Trapped in a Brazilian prison, Nininha and her cellmates devise personal and collective strategies for surviving incarceration. Each of them can transform into a massive black horse whenever she pleases. But in reality there are no fantasies, no romanticism, just the brutality of the system itself.

The Royal Court Theatre welcomes Mexico this January

This January, the Jerwood Theatre Upstairs at the Royal Court Theatre will host some of the most exciting voices developing work through the Royal Court’s International Programme.

These six performances come from artists making work in a rich variety of different traditions and languages. Many of them began life on writers groups and projects run by the Royal Court in collaboration with partners from around the world.

The series will be accompanied by a series of talks and discussions that explore the political, social and cultural conversations surrounding the plays.
