Carlos Gallegos, an Ecuadorian dramatist, stage director, and actor, has emerged as a highly regarded figure in the theater industry.
Born in Cuenca, Ecuador, Gallegos discovered his passion for the performing arts at a young age.
He embarked on his journey in the world of theater, gradually honing his skills and making a name for himself in Ecuador’s vibrant theater scene.
He was formed in United State (Dell'Arte International School), French (École Internationale Jacques Lecoq y École de Clown Le Samovar) and Ecuador (Laboratorio Malayerba y Teatro del Cronopio).
While Gallegos has ventured into film, it is his contributions to the theater that have garnered him the most recognition.
In 2010, he starred in the film “Prometeo deportado” (Deporting Prometeo), showcasing his talent on the silver screen.
However, it is through his work in theater that Gallegos has truly left an indelible mark.
In an unknown first world airport the arrival of an ecuadorian flight is heard. The 'members of the European Union' passby migration, while the 'others', in the other line, wait. In the middle of the claims, a group of ecuadorians is arrested. They are taken to the Room, where they wait to be deported. Seems like everyone hides something, like PROMETEO the young magician with his hands tied like a delinquent who has a 'magical' trunk as luggage. Time passes, a way of being, Ecuador happens in this waiting room. Seems like there is no possible exit. Meanwhile, a different but well-known way of life takes place. The only thing left as a promising way out is illusion.
