Buda Errante (Wandering Buda)

Abstract

Buda Errante (Wandering Buda) is a solo performance inspired by the life of the Chilean poet and Nobel Prize in Literature (1945), Gabriela Mistral, in conversation with the personal experiences of the creator of this piece. The play explores “missing,” such as missing an accent, childhood, friends, lovers, children, and a country. By encouraging participation, this solo show invites the audience to connect with the characters and their stories through the use of humor, all in an attempt to find light and lightness even in the most difficult moments in life.
