Description: "Three plays explore the search for a meaningful existence in the face of contemporary social injustice and life's misfortunes. 'Electro Show,' set in a mental hospital, examines our responsibility for our own behavior and the impossibility of erasing the world's evils. 'Concierto a dos bocas' deals with the artist's existential dilemma: to pursue fame or to be faithful to one's moral and ethical principles. 'La consiga' explores the vice of alcoholism. Dialogue contains numerous Guatemalan idiomatic expressions, which are explained in a glossary at the end of the play"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
