DVD Books without Words – 2012
The Adventure of Being Human
In this live recording at the Regina Vogue Theatre in Curitiba, Brazil, the imaginative scripts and letters of the books in a library change into movements and action: Sherlock Holmes, James Bond or maybe even William Tell. Carlos Martínez presents a mesh of narrative yarns that intertwine his own with well-known stories. The driving force of the show is the joy of discovering and experimenting.
“In Books with Words, no one is illiterate.”

BOOK Der Poet der Stille – 2020
In his new book, published so far only in German, Carlos Martinez tells 26 short stories with words. Anecdotes based on the stage, the dressing room and the audience are mixed with some of his memories as son, father or husband.
With tenderness and wit he describes his enthusiasm for creativity and the Creator. He approaches the Bible, but not as a theologian but as an artist asking questions that shed new light on the sacred texts.
This book is an invitation to look at life from another perspective, to take nothing for granted, but to question everything with respect and humor.
It can be purchased in any bookstore in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
