Field Studies by Sara Pinedo 
Translated by Daniel Goldman 
Directed and performed by Sara Pinedo 

This series of actions, performed by writer/maker Sara Pinedo, shed new light on the real-life cases of forced disappearances, searches, denunciations and resistance in Guanajuato, Mexico. This piece of educational archive theatre is both protest and testimony. This is a reminder that the search for the ‘disappeared’ must continue in multiple languages, both artistic and every day.

Field Studies  and  Migrant Ball of Thread  were developed through a writers group for emerging writers and theatre makers from Mexico, run in partnership with Anglo Arts and Teatro UNAM in Mexico City.
