From the show:
After sold out seasons in Costa Rica, El Salvador and Spain, “LaConstrucción del Muro” arrives to the U.S. The production brings together diverse Central American talents to lay bare the consequences of hate speech against Latino immigrants. Winner of the Audience Award at the Miteu International Theater Festival, Spain, the play examines what happens when an ordinary person becomes part of the machinery of an oppressive political system and how the inconceivable becomes inevitable.The play exposes the effects of hatred against immigrants that flee from violence and poverty. What they encounter across the border is a dystopic panorama the effects of which might be more real than the public cares to accept.
