Fisherman

Silencio Blanco returns to the Chicago Puppet Festival with its third play devoted to men of the sea. Pescador (Fisherman) digs into the intimacy of those men who are submerged in their solitary crafts and confronted with nature’s immensity. The play finds its dwelling in those places which have become awkward, strange to us: a man by his boat and his fishing net, establishing an invaluable connection with his trade. It is silence in all its forms. It is the dance of silence.
