Founded in 2003, the Mexican collective Lagartijas Tiradas al Sol (literally, lizards lying in the sun) promotes a form of theater that is in touch with the world. Inspired by real events, their plays weave links between history and fiction, offering an unprecedented space for reflection. Their latest creation focuses on a "small" strip of land linking the United States to South America: Central America. Largely unknown, it is plagued by dictatorships, gangs, political instability and conflict. Centroamérica takes as its starting point their encounter with a Nicaraguan woman forced into exile, like so many others, to escape the regime of the bloodthirsty Daniel Ortega. Here, she tells us her story and that of a wounded region of the world.
