Director Andrés Lima, together with playwrights Albert Boronat, Juan Cavestany and Juan Mayorga, sign this text, a documentary theatre piece inspired by ‘The Shock Doctrine’ by Canadian journalist Naomi Klein. A heartbreaking and surprising theatrical journey through a story of shame, starring six actors who split into various characters. The show has won the Max Awards for Best Stage Direction (Andrés Lima) and Best Stage Design (Beatriz Sanjuan).
Shock 1 (El Cóndor y el Puma) is the result of the theatrical investigation of a historical event, General Pinochet’s coup d’état against the government of Salvador Allende. Documentary theatre where history is represented, but you get to know it from the point of view of emotion. Representing our history is the will to know ourselves. Our society today is the result of what we built or destroyed yesterday. Today’s prevailing capitalism was forged over a long period of time, but it got a fundamental boost after the end of the Second World War, partly thanks to, or in spite of, the Shock Doctrine. And the Chilean coup is its first experiment.
