A magnificent play, daring, timely, outside the box... Nimble dialogue, strong characters; a real challenge for theater directors who are committed to contemporary playwriting. Guillermo Heras, Author/Director, Spain. In All Alive Gustavo Ott has constructed a solid play that is at the same time both utopian and dystopian. Here, a new virus, more aggressive than the old COVID of 2020, is decimating the world population. In this theater-thriller the pandemic grows until it becomes an intense and exciting drama that portrays the world as a place where we pressure each other other mercilessly though our ideas of success have failed. Our only hope seems to lie in the Other. Is this a play or a potential opera? Philosophy? A film? A series with several seasons? Ott seems to say that in theater we can do it all; that the stage has no limits, no straight-jacket that can contain it, and that from the old theater we can encompass every known form and all those yet to come. Because All Alive is more than a work of fiction; it is a legacy for all those who want to know the fragile, painful, and at times sensational and romantic threat of extinction-and see themselves in it. Carlos Rojas /Theater Critic, Venezuela.
