Promises

Two Person Show · gas pimienta · Ages 14+ · Mexico

world premiere

Nadia is a Mexican teenager who falls in love with Octavio, an undergrad student. After some years together, they find themselves trapped in a cycle of violence that seems to keep escalating.

The story repairs on the behavioral nuances that can help a potential victim (and their loved ones) to identify abuse before it’s too late.

Nadia, Octavio, their family and friends will take the audience on this journey where “love” leads to a tragic end.

About Gas Pimienta:

Our company’s objective is to create awareness about violence against women.
In Mexico there’s currently 11 femicides a day. Frustrated and concerned about this situation, we had the urge to spread the word and decided to do what we know best: create art about it.
