at Warehouse Four | Al Quoz
Peter Searles Hey Gringo! A Chile Christmas at Warehouse Four on Tuesday 3 December 2019.
British actor and writer Peter Searles, a veteran of stage, screen, and BBC television and radio, gives an intensely dramatic and frequently hilarious account of his journey from the scorching wastes of the Atacama Desert in northern Chile to the shantytowns and smog-laden cities of the south, to a world of forests, lakes, and volcanoes.
Accompanied by oversexed train drivers, a beautiful young revolutionary, out-of-work actors, Marxist priests, fascist police, Chilean Eco-warriors, and Pinochet's neighbours, Searles recounts a journey that turns into a quest for truth and meaning in land torn apart by thirteen years of military dictatorship.
Searles' touring show has won so many rave reviews from major newspapers that it is difficult to decide which ones to quote, but here are a smattering:
“"Deeply funny.... we take our hats off to an amazing storyteller.” Time Out ★★★★★
“A fascinating, scary and funny tale from way beyond our normal confines. Prepare to be transported” Evening Standard ★★★★★
“A bloke stands on a bare stage telling us about a holiday he took in Chile more than 20 years ago. It sounds like the definition of dullness, but an hour and 20 minutes later you are yearning for more” The Guardian ★★★★★
ABOUT PETER SEARLES
Since training at LAMDA (1977-80) Peter has worked extensively as an actor in Theatre, Television and Radio.
His writing credits include the award-nominated Forest People which he co-wrote with Douglas Hodge for BBC TV and Five Smooth Stones for The Bush Theatre; His numerous directing credits include Fibber In the Heat with comedian/actor Miles Jupp.
Peter is best known for his repertoire of comedic one-man shows – he most recently performed his award-winning Edinburgh show Sex, Lies and a DVD (previously titled Sex… with Pete Searles) on Broadway and at NYU’s Tisch School of Performing Arts.
For the past ten years, Searles has toured his internationally-acclaimed trilogy of one-man shows about his extraordinary South American odyssey throughout the UK, the US, Europe, Far East, Ireland and Bermuda.
Sell-out successes include the Royal National Theatre, Soho Theatre, Royal Exchange Manchester, Cheltenham Literature and the Chichester and Bermuda Festivals.
