THE CAPTAIN’S HOUSES
A Journey Into The Life Of A Poet

Referred to as the Picasso of poetry for his protean ability to remain at the vanguard of change, Pablo Neruda is Chile’s favorite son. Exploring his eclectic homes, which provide an insight into this fascinating man’s life, is a must for any visitor to Chile.

THE LONG JOURNEY

(April 15, 2005) Herman Melville’s “Moby Dick,” written in 1851, was inspired by a whale that was persecuted by fishermen around the Isla Mocha in Chile. Nearly 150 years later U.S. artist Frank Stella presents his own pictorial interpretation of the novel.

‘THE SECRET SEXUALITY’: MAN TO MAN

(April 15, 2005) This play is about men. It is written and directed by men and has an all-male cast. But in spite of this, “La sexualidad secreta de los hombres (The secret sexuality of men)” was not written for men only; anyone can enjoy its hilarious script and laid-to-bare honesty.
