ABOUT María Eugenia Ilabaca Parry:
María Eugenia Ilabaca Parry is originally from Chile. She has always had a strong inclination for artistic activities. She is a dressmaker in Haute Couture.
She studied Chilean folklore at the Ñuñoa House of Culture where she had Victor Jara, folklorist, composer, actor and theater director, as a teacher.
She was part of the choir of the Housing Corporation, together with her father, mother and three of his sisters with whom she performed Mozart's "Requiem" with the Santiago Symphony Orchestra, at the Municipal Theater, one of the most important theaters in Chile for those years.
One of her great desires was to become a mother, she has two sons and one daughter.
The 1973 coup changed her life forever. She went into exile in Argentina with her children and her husband and in 1976 the military coup in Argentina made her return to Chile with her children.
In the midst of the dictatorship, she formed a vocational theater company with the aim of taking theater to places where people with fewer resources have no chance of seeing it.
At the end of the Chilean dictatorship, she worked at the Ministry of Agriculture, where she held a national peasant story contest and produced a radio program.
She currently lives in Valparaíso where she participates in an anti-prison feminist group to connect the culture with the inmates.
