Colombian and Argentine Theaters Stage Return of Popular Plays

The award‑winning drama “El Padre” returns for a limited run at Bogotá’s Teatro Nacional on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings, featuring Colombian actors such as Jairo Camargo, Andrea Gómez and Marcela Mar under the direction of Klynch López. The French‑written piece explores memory loss and familial love.

In Buenos Aires, the comedy‑drama “Visitando al Sr. Green” reopens at the Multiteatro on 9 September, with shows from Wednesday to Sunday. Actors Jorge Suárez and Facundo Arana lead the production, directed by Santiago Doria. The play follows a young New York executive sentenced to assist a widowed senior, evolving into an unexpected friendship.

Both revivals highlight a resurgence of classic stage works in major Latin‑American cities, drawing renewed audience interest.
