To The Winners is a play that chronicles a young man’s search for a long lost message he says was whispered to him on the day he was born. In order to achieve his aim, the character invites the audience to follow him in this wondrous adventure. Everyone in the audience then is inevitably exposed to this young man’s awakening of sexual and emotional awareness. Making use of mime, dance, accordion playing, background music and sound effects, the story unravels fantasy as well as historical perspective. Both character and audience travel from the claustrophobic closeness of a TV set to the magnitude of Neptune’s oceans and their orishas, from the solitude of a cradle to the company of thousands of roaring students revolting in the late 6o’s in the streets, from the space of a tiny living room to the imaginary depths of a fish bowl. At the end of the play, both the character and the audience finally arrive (from their shared journey) at the realization that the message was all along with them. The message is finally revealed and can hopefully be found in the heart of each single theatergoer who is sitting in the darkness of the theater.
