Review of «La mano en el frasco en la caja en el tren» in El diario de Alcalá

La mano en el frasco en la caja en el tren, by Pedro Sedlinsky, premiered on 21 May 1999 in the assembly hall of the Colegio San José in Guadalajara. El diario de Alcalá devoted this review to it, under the headline Poesía virtual, signed with the pen name Gordon Craig.

The dim light, reddish in tone, filtered through the gauze that covers the proscenium arch, and the monotonous, hammering purr of the train create that atmosphere of mystery and unreality which pervades the whole stage and wraps the occupants of the dining car in a dense spider’s web.

The direction is rigorous and extremely meticulous.
