Love in the Time of Corona
DIRECTED BY FRANCESCA MURRAY-FUENTES.
26 June 2021
Overview
“Their hearts beat so strongly, it shook the entire city.”
In the stark corridors of a hospital during a night shift, Milagros finds the ghost of a restless soul taking refuge in her cleaning cupboard. As he accompanies her on her shift from dusk to dawn, they share stories of love, life and despair from their own pasts, and those of the other souls who tread the same grey corridors. A script-in-hand homage to the poetry, folklore, and magic realism of Latin America, with live music.
Created by Francesca Murray-Fuentes (Dance Protest, The Bunker; The Runner, Oxford Playhouse), and performed by Jimena Larraguivel (Faces in the Crowd, The Gate; Day of the Living, RSC) and Alvaro Flores (The House of the Spirits, Cervantes Theatres; The Time of our Lies, Park Theatre).
