A group of neurodivergent actors takes the stage to share their desires and frustrations through a freeform version of Hamlet. The play meshes Shakespeare’s text with the experience of living with Down syndrome, starting with the famous line "To be, or not to be..." The play considers what it means "to be" for people who have been historically excluded from society. What value and meaning do they have today in a world where efficiency, production capacity, and unattainable models of consumption and beauty are the paradigm of the human being? Premiered at Teatro La Plaza in Lima in 2019 and since touring worldwide, the performance invites audiences to reflect on identity, inclusion, and what it means “to be.”
