Juan Radrigán | Playwright Juan Radrigán Rojas was born in Antofagasta, Chile, in January 1937. He is self-taught. He never went to school because from a very young age he had to go out to work. He claims to have learned to read, and much else besides, in the endlessly sad eyes of his mother, in the magnificent, rain-soaked places of the South, in the dry lands of the North and in many hundreds of faces and bodies destroyed by unrelenting poverty. He has written forty-two plays and hopes to write many more for as long as he continues to keep death at bay. He says he has no idea where this need in him arose to set about joining together words that tell stories, words that protest or reflect about the time when he was fated to exist. For many years he was a textile worker and thanks to the education he was able to give himself, he became the president of several trade unions. From 1973 on, he had a wide variety of jobs including librarian, salesman, shop assistant, factory packer. In 1980 he wrote his first play, Testimonio de las muertes de Sabina. Productions of his plays have reached trade unions, villages, schools and communities traditionally considered marginal, as well as professional theatres. In October 2011 he was awarded the National Prize for the Performing Arts in Chile.
