Will of Power) intense images of confusion and anxiety about the end of the millennium run through the play in which there are ten characters who are about to ``fall into an abyss, staring in horror at the nothingness.''  The plot is revealed rapidly through uncertain and vague facts.  The atmosphere is one of generalized chaos.  An old man ``laments what he predicted and feared: the death of all faith, utopia, spiritual value and meaning.''  The text makes an impression as a lucid meditation on the state of life in Latin America, brimming with pessimism and terror.  It is carried out in the style of a ``thriller'' with an unexpected ending.</div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> Other plays by <A HREF="de_la_perra.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Marco Antonio de la Parra">Marco Antonio de la
