These Trees Are Made Of Blood
Synopsis:
And for our next act. . .The Magical Military Junta. . .Will make 30,000 people disappear before your very eyes. During the 70s and 80s, Argentina was locked in a period of state terrorism, with a military dictatorship waging war on suspected left-wing political sympathizers. Thousands of citizens were "disappeared"; seized by the authorities and rarely heard from again. Set in a timeless Buenos Aires cabaret club before, during and after Argentina's Dirty War, These Trees are Made of Blood tells the story of one Mother's search for her daughter. Blending original live music and exciting cabaret acts with an urgent narrative, this is a new piece of political theatre which promises to be an unforgettable audience experience. So come on in. The club's open all hours and history can always be rewritten after one too many.
