Taking as its central theme the figure of the parricide, the Franco-Uruguayan playwright Sergio Blanco writes his play Tebas Land inspired by the legendary myth of Oedipus, the life of Saint Martin and a legal file created and imagined by the own Blanco in which it is narrated the judgment of a young parricida named Martín Santos.

Tebas Land

Taking as a central theme the figure of the parricide, the Franco-Uruguayan playwright Sergio Blanco wrote Tebas Land, a piece inspired by the legendary Oedipus myth, in the life of the fourth-century European saint Saint Martin and in a legal file created and imagined by the own Blanco in which the judgment of a young parricida called Martin Santos is narrated.

From then on the different encounters they have in a prison basketball court, this young parricide and a playwright who seeks to write the history of this parricide, Tebas Land will little by little be concerned not so much with the reconstruction of the crime, but of the scenic representation of the encounters between both characters.

The work moves away from the ethical dimension of parricide to concentrate on the aesthetic possibilities of its representation and offer us a thesis on the theatrical events.

 

Corina Fiorillo says:

"Tebas Land is based on the principle of doubt, of the nude as a criterion, of duality as a guide, our work is focused on the crude reality of stripping our theatrical devices to make them real." The work has the complexity of the primitively simple, the origin of things, the cruelty of the word without artifice, we want to build ourselves in our own 'passing' with and without artifices, with the final dramatists who are the publics in communion with the setting."
