David Foster Wallace
Playwright
The great observer of today's society
Considered one of the most brilliant and influential exponents of his generation, David Foster Wallace (1962-2008) was an American writer known worldwide for The Infinite Joke, a novel chosen by Time magazine as one of the 100 best books published between 1923 and 2006. In 1999 he wrote Brief Interviews with Hideous Men, a play that, like the entirety of his narrative, brings to the table issues such as the discomfort of today's society, American idiosyncrasy and the crisis of masculinity at the end of the 20th century.

David Foster Wallace's acclaimed novel comes to theater with a duo of powerful actors -Marcelo Alonso and Francisco Reyes- and the outstanding Argentinian director Daniel Veronese.
In Encuentros breves con hombres repulsivos, the theatrical adaptation of David Foster Wallace´s novel by the renowned Argentinian director Daniel Veronese, there are two actors: A and B. Both characters interact, and during eight brief and independent encounters, they alternate their roles. There are several issues being discussed, but they all point to a common topic: the evident condition of the contemporary male when encountering a woman - in terms of love, sex, and even loss. A confrontation of dangerous, uncomfortable limits which, somewhere and sometimes, began to be socially permitted and which reflect the lack of communication between genders. The play unfolds under the conditions of overprotection, intimidation, and degradation.
Encuentros breves con hombres repulsivos stars Marcelo Alonso (director of El padre and La última sesión de Freud) and Francisco Reyes (Lear, el rey y su doble, La desobediencia de Marte). A co-production of Fundación Teatro a Mil and Teatro Finis Terrae, with the collaboration of T4 producciones teatrales (Argentina).
