Tallahassee Hispanic Theater needs you!!! Please, help us fund our Springtime production!
We will present the play Blind Date, inspired by the writings of Jorge Luis Borges, an Argentinian poet, essayist and short-story writer. It tells the story of an elderly blind man who draws confessors to him as he sits on a park bench. They discuss mid-life crises, time, love, fate and missed opportunities while discussing universal human concerns.
The author of Blind Date, Mario Diament, M.A. is an associate professor at Florida International University. He was born in Argentina, and is a veteran foreign correspondent and a former executive editor of one of the leading newspapers in Buenos Aires. Diament has had his plays produced in the U.S. and abroad. For his playwriting he has won the following awards: the New York Critics’ ACE Award for Best Play Blind Date, New York; the ACE Award (Critics’ Association) for Best Play Tierra del Fuego, Buenos Aires, Argentina; the María Guerrero Award, Best Play for A Report on the Banality of Love, Buenos Aires, Argentina; the Florencio Sánchez Award Best Play for A Report on the Banality of Love, Buenos Aires, Argentina, and the ACE Award, Best Play for Blind Date, Mexico City, Mexico.
