Nicknamed “The Emperor of the Stage,” Franklin Caicedo has applied his remarkable talents to create a one-man show that movingly evokes the spirit of Chile’s greatest poet, Pablo Neruda. In this program, Caicedo is filmed onstage, with students in a park, and at a variety of other venues as he dramatically recites “The Words,” “Not Only Fire,” “I Like You When You Are Silent,” “Self-Portrait,” “The Question,” The Dead Woman,” “Farewell,” “Saddest Poem,” “Letter on My Travels,” and other selections from Neruda’s oeuvre. (Spanish with English subtitles, 41 minutes)
