Dorfman wrote this psychological thriller in 1990.
Originally written in Dorfman's native language, Spanish, and largely
influenced by events in Chile and Argentina, the play is set in the 1990's and
could be a beach house in any country which has suffered a totalitarian regime
and is in the early days of democracy.
The director of this production has chosen not to specify an exact location and
believes that the events which unfold could conceivably happen anywhere.
