The actress has been working on Corrientes Street since last year in the comedy Tom, Dicky and Harry, along with Mariano Martínez, Bicho Gómez, Yayo Guridi, María Valenzuela, Jorge Noya and Gabriela Sari, and directed by Nicolás Cabré. The work marked his return to the stage after several years away from acting. “There were no proposals and she was very dedicated to motherhood,” she told THE NATION. “I always really liked music and it was something pending.

I love acting, I enjoy getting on stage and this possibility is great because he is a character that I love. We have known Nico (Cabré) for years, he gave me all his trust and accepted the proposals that he brought for the character. Maybe a director who doesn’t know you that much doesn’t trust you too much,” Oviedo said about his return to the theater with Tom, Dicky and Harry. “TOAt first I was very nervous, I felt very rusty and Nico told me: ‘Come on, you’ll be able to do it, stay calm.’ I am very grateful because the team is great and on top of that we are doing well. Having your space again as a working woman, being able to leave the house and have that moment for yourself is very important. Maybe I’m more tired than before, but I come back with another energy, renewed, missing my son a little and the time we share has quality.”
