Gustavo Dias-Vallejo

Director Dramaturg Performer Writer Teacher

Hi! I am a director/dramaturg/theatremaker/performer.
I also teach drama/theatre/performance and collaborate with creative projects outside the industry.

My interests range from contemporary theatre and performance art to social and applied theatre projects. I am particularly keen on devised and imaginative productions, and innovative adaptations and combinations of classic and modern texts.
