Martín Erazo

Director

This artistic director and scriptwriter for the company La Patogallina was nominated for an Altazor Award for the play El húsar de la muerte, which has toured Europe, Latin America and India.

Matute

The clown

Comedian Omar Álvarez performs as a clown, a character he created more than ten years ago when he was studying at the Teatro La Mancha. Matute is easy to understand, charismatic, jokey and a virtuoso whose onstage persona has matured through improvising on stages both in Chile and abroad. His comedy routines and theater performances avoid words as such, with him using a mixture of sounds - as well as objects and gestures - to make himself understood.

A journey full of color and laughter on board El Arca: a theater-boat that aims to save humanity from an imminent flood.

Just like what happened to Noah in the Bible, the world is about to be flooded again. Matute Álvarez and Teatro El Arca invite us all to sail away together on an extraordinary boat, escaping the impending disaster and resettling somewhere else.

Adults, children and families make up the crew of this vessel, built by the sheer hard work of Matute, a clown who is a jack of all trades.

Destiny calls! All we have to do is follow this ark and the remarkable playfulness, ingenuity, tenderness, laughter and emotion it leaves in its wake.
