Hay momentos en la historia del teatro en los que a investigadores y curiosos les hubiera gustado que las cámaras hubiesen registrado momentos irrepetibles ¿Dónde estaban las cámaras cuando el joven Luis Andres Caicedo Estela (Cali, 1951-1977) puso en escena sus obras de teatro? Todavia no se sabe muy bien el momento en el cual Caicedo comenzo a interesarse por el mundo del arte. Se supone que su fascinacion inicial se dio por los libros que devoraba desde su primera infancia, pero fue en los claustros escolares cuando descubrio su interes por la representacion de historias. Con el paso del tiempo, la figura de Caicedo ha ido convirtiendose en una suerte de mito juvenil colombiano, centrado en su interes descomunal por la narrativa y el cine. Gracias a los libros El atravesado, ¡Que viva la musica!, Angelitos empantanados o historias para jovencitos, Destinitos fatales, Berenice, Calicalabozo, Noche sin fortuna, El cuento de mi vida, Mi cuerpo es una celda, El libro negro u Ojo al cine, se ha construido la leyenda de su genio.
