Abstract
This original multilingual play, produced in collaboration with the Yuyachkani Theatre group, was based on the personal experiences of Quechua-speaking and Aymara-speaking women from Ayacucho and Puno who face difficulties in communication between their communities and Spanish-speaking society in their daily lives. It showed, with the participation in the scene of these women, how their role is key in facilitating communication with monolingual speakers of Spanish in public spaces and social service settings. The audiovisual recording of the play was subsequently shown in Ayacucho and Puno.
