Overview

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Osvaldo Dragun (May 7, 1929-June 14, 1999) was a prominent Argentine playwright and theatre director. Osvaldo Dragun was born in Colonia Berro, a Jewish agricultural settlement in Entre Rios Province, Argentina. After his father's linseed farm suffered from recurrent locust problems, the family left the settlement for Buenos Aires. Dragun left his university studies in 1953 to pursue his calling in the theatre. Joining the Fray Mocho Theatre in 1956, he premiered his first work, La peste viene de Melos (The Plague from Melos). The politically-charged play, on the 1954 coup d'etat against Guatemalan President Jacobo rbenz, drew also from the playwright's own childhood memories of his father's struggles with locusts.
