Three theatre companies took part: Teatro de la Memoria (“Memory Theatre”), who performed the ''Chile Testimonial Trilogy'' directed by Alfredo Castro; La Troppa, performing ''Pinocchio''; and Teatro del Silencio (“Theatre of Silence”), who performed ''Taca-Taca mon amour'' directed by Mauricio Celedón.〔(1994 ) Official website of Santiago a Mil.
