Born in 1964 in Buenos Aires, Rodrigo García has lived and worked in France and Spain since 1986. Author, set designer and director, in 1989 he created the company La Carnicería Teatro, which has produced numerous experimental productions, in search of a personal language, far from traditional theatre.
His references are unclassifiable, crossing the centuries without worrying about chronology: one thinks of Quevedo, poet of the Spanish Golden Age, Beckett, Céline, Thomas Bernhard, but also Buñuel or even the Goya of the Dark Ages.

He refuses to shut himself up in a theatre written only for specialists, and which operates by codes and dogmas. His writing is inspired by everyday life, from the street where he grew up, in this working-class suburb of Buenos Aires surrounded by friends destined to become labourers or bricklayers. He dreams of a theatre where anyone can push open the door without hesitating on the threshold.
His writing is an extension of reality from which he draws strong inspiration: its strength lies in the poetic dimension he brings to it.
