Meanwhile, in the heart of Buenos Aires’ Palermo neighborhood, a unique theatrical experience awaits at Blind Theater. Their production, “Blind Theater for Boys,” is a groundbreaking children’s play designed to engage the senses through immersive sound and unexpected sensory surprises. The performance artfully transitions from dim, black-light settings into complete darkness, challenging conventional theatrical norms.
The play’s creator, Martín Bondone, describes it as a venture to craft a childhood narrative that thrives in absolute darkness, where visual cues are replaced by stimuli like wind, water, aromas, and enveloping soundscapes. The characters interact directly with the audience, transforming each showing into a deeply personal and unforgettable journey.
The story centers on two endearing characters, Nescius and Positivín, who guide the audience to understand darkness not as a void, but as a creative force that sparks inventiveness and facilitates extraordinary sensory adventures. The core question posed is how to weave a compelling narrative without visual aids, relying solely on voices, sounds, and scents.
Bondone elaborates on the play’s ideology, addressing the common fear of the dark. “The fear of darkness is one of the oldest and most ingrained,” he notes. “Therefore,we had to confront our own preconceptions. The work doesn’t aim to eradicate fear, but to reframe it. It invites a playful interaction where darkness transforms from a potential threat into a supportive companion. It becomes a presence that shares stories,unveils aromas,introduces new sounds,and encourages laughter. It’s an invitation to pause, listen, and feel as the imagination takes flight.”
Blind Theater is located at Borges 1974 in Palermo. performances run Monday to Friday at 11 AM, 1 PM, 3 PM, and 5 PM.On Saturdays, shows are at 12 PM, 2 PM, and 4 PM, while Sundays feature performances at 11 AM, 1 PM, 3 PM, and 5 PM.
