ALTAR and Urn
Two Plays by Santiago Guzman
Santiago Guzman
Set in Newfoundland and Labrador (although adaptable to other small towns), these two plays deal with similar themes of cultural and sexual identity and family relationships. In ALTAR, Eugenio draws upon Mexican tradition to summon his boyfriend who has ghosted him, and in Urn, two siblings, Mariana and Esteban, who have taken different approaches to living as Mexican immigrants in Canada, reconnect after their mother’s death.
