Teatro Sur's "Inutiles (Useless)"

Leading Chilean experimental theater satirizes its country’s Colonial underpinnings.

Friday, January 5, 2018
8:00pm – 9:45pm
Hopkins Center 114 Moore Theater
Intended Audience(s): Public
Categories: Performances

Dive headlong into politically outspoken Latin American theater with the US debut of one of Chile’s leading experimental companies. Set in an 18th-century frontier hacienda, Inútiles follows an effete, aristocratic family in suffocatingly lavish clothes—headed by a matriarch played in drag by an esteemed Chilean actor. As the family flails in the face of a servant rebellion, Inútiles offers a rich, satiric takedown of Colonial racism, debauchery and self-delusion—then and now.

In Spanish, with English supertitles.

Adult language and subject matter; partial nudity.
