Critical Praise
"I’VE REALLY NEVER SEEN ANYTHING QUITE LIKE IT.
Teatrocinema employs projections and comic-style graphics with a cinematic flair
that makes you feel like you’ve been dropped into a movie,
your perspective swinging with the camera’s fluid movements."
- Amelia Mason, WBUR
"A provocative, digital mash-up of live art and cinematic storytelling.”
– Los Angeles Times
“The inventiveness and variety of resources used make it dazzling; never before has Teatrocinema put on a piece as cohesive and dramatically fast-paced as this.”
– El Mercurio
“This production has inherited the fatalistic and tragic elements of the best of film noir.”
– Culturizarte
“Written by Zagal, the score is one of the high points, creating a tense atmosphere worthy of a thriller.”
– Wikén Magazine
Audience Raves
“Possibly the most unique and striking performance I’ve seen.
The entire production is like a loose electrical wire, sparking and twitching in the street…
HIGHLY recommended”
