The groups Comunidad Creativa, Estudio Teatral Macuba and Teatro de la Luna, in that order, will go up on stages to defend these plays.

The event includes the participation of theater artists from Argentina, Brazil, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Peru, Dominican Republic and Cuba, and will be held in several Havana venues until May 15.
