Fourplays: ABCD is inspired by a series of conversations between a brother and sister, between a prostitute and her customer, between a man and his lover, between a traitor and his confidante. All the stories take place in a room, bedroom, or dining room, and the dialogues will be taken from three important 20th century Argentine writers – Roberto Arit, Jorge Luis Borges, and Julio Cortazar – and one French writer, Marguerite Duras (Arit, Borges, Cortazar and Duras – A, B, C and D). Aside from the alphabetical coincidence, all the stories reflect the impossibility of human relationships and the impossibility of dialogue. This performance will take the form of a narration.
