Repertorio Español and Puerto Rico’s Boundless Theater Company will tour its adaptation of Nobel Prize of Literature winner Gabriel García Márquez’s Chronicle of a Death Foretold, to the Guaynabo Performing Arts Center in Puerto Rico. Jorge Alí Triana directs the production, which will perform at the venue, March 6-10.

Chronicle of a Death Foretold is the story of a spectacular wedding, followed by a stunning scandal and a savage murder of which everyone in a small Latin American town is an accomplice. When the story starts, Santiago Nasar is already dead, because he knows that the Vicario’s brothers are going to kill him. In fact, they have already done so, to avenge their sister’s honor, but the novel ends when Santiago Nasar dies. In this theatrical adaptation, conceived and directed by Triana, the drama takes place in a bullring.

The production stars Richard Trujillo, Silvia Sierra, Gredivel Vásquez, Teresa Yenque, Mario Mattei, Pep Muñoz, Eric Robledo, Alberto Morgan, Marcelo Rodríguez, Mónica Perez Brandes, Gerardo Gudiño, Tatiana Vecino, Fulvia Vergel, Raúl Durán and Anthony Alvarez.
