## About this plan

La Casa de Atrás is back on Bogotá stages with 'La muñeca y el petardo', a production created with Teatro Mayor Julio Mario Santo Domingo. The play starts from a direct question: does desire define who we are?

Adrián is a pediatrician who hides a private side with the help of a lifelike doll. Vanesa, his daughter, is a feminist YouTuber who also keeps a secret sexuality. The turning point comes when a bomb explodes in their apartment and forces them to face what the other hides, and to rebuild among the rubble.

The piece won the IDARTES District Award for Studio Theater in 2024 and has become one of the most restless works in the local lineup.
