THE IDES OF MARCH

A workshop production
Part of Pregones' Asuncion Playwrights Project


Alejandro is training his lover Néstor for a race. Alejandro is anxiously waiting for Néstor to be rescued from the burning towers. Alejandro remembers Néstor and burns with longing. Alejandro's heart is violently torn from his chest by a memory. Alejandro finds Néstor in the backrooms of memory.

Marisela, Alejandro's daughter, is worried about the old man. He talks to himself a lot more now. She would like him to move in with her. Susan, Alejandro's best friend, knows better. Alejandro is running the last mile of everlasting love.

Performed in English. For mature audiences.

Winner of Pregones Theater's 2010 Asunción Playwrights Competition.

Written by Leo Cabranes Grant.
Directed by Jorge B. Merced.
