“Journey to Santiago” by Gonzalo Rodríguez Risco

 

“...A young man leads us through a journey of confessions, as he grows past his childhood beliefs and is left with only his confusion and sense of loss. A spiritual play about the loss of the spirit, set in South America where imaginary friends can be knights from the Crusades who follow us and help us and guide us.  It is a spare, raw and moving piece of confession, in both the religious and personal sense...”

-From the Introduction to “The Private Life” by Richard Nelson-
