A wall is a wall. Built to keep people from moving from place to place, it faces a sort of existential impossibility. A person is a person: if they need to overcome the wall, they will do so, or die trying. Or live trying. Caught between a harsh reality – full of violence and often destitution – and the illusion of paradise, thousands of people attempt daily to cross the border between Mexico and the United States. In Amarillo, a woman voices the imaginary words of an absent man, whose dream of reaching the American El Dorado of Amarillo, Texas, has never been fulfilled. Jorge A. Vargas stages that painful absence, a tragic echo of so many others, as characters reveal themselves, multiplying faces and identities. In their research centre in Coyoacán, the members of Teatro Línea de Sombra combine the theatre with visual arts, music or video, mingling imagination and physical theatre to create a disturbing portrait of simple humanity amidst the impasses of contemporaneity.
