An evening of one-act plays featuring Che Guevara: physician, author, revolutionary leader and pop cultural icon.
In Che, Mario Fratti imagines the final moments of the revolutionary leader. With his execution both certain and near, Che remains defiant to the authorities, and compassionate and loving to the people around him, including the guards who will soon be his firing squad.
In Fred Newman’s magical love story, Che is the Risky Revolutionary, reappearing decades after his murder to urge his old comrade Fidel Castro to take the greatest risk of all.
