Decoration Harvest Time

WHAT WE DO WITH THE COWS?

Within what has happened in response to theater groups stage Caracas for the quarter January to March 2011, highlighted a production offered by the Theatre counterplay in the spaces of the Experimental Hall Celarg . From adaptation of the book (Voices of the maze written in the year 2005) English writer, Ricard Ruiz Garzón , addresses an acute synthetic as proposed to the reception spectrum that makes up our local public spectacle I mean the anti cows must be pulled off the cliff . And this effort scenic qualify for "antiteatral" or as one of its actors, in a conversation before confronting this production, as "pure theater" due not only to experimental spinning not only the staging where the most parsimonious visual of a "poor theater" or appealing tentatively brookiana theoretical dimensions, the empty space enhances the creative power of text, actor and a conceptual framework around which the synthesis rather than obligation and the power must not only significant from the creators, directors / actors, but the re-modification the viewer weapon for himself, once out of space. As would be located the thematic core of text Ruiz Garzón, pull the cows through the ravine appeals to speak openly and without relish of the dark intricacies of what is known in psychiatry: schizophrenia. A disorder invisible or visible for those who are concerned, invisible or clear to those who have to deal with with a loved one, a couple or a friend, the hard way not to be seen as someone abnormal. With these premises, the Theatre of counterplay bet to experience, to propose, to articulate a possibility that should not fall into a line of stage experience with a view to being referred to as "breakout show" but as a way to create an atmosphere of a reflection that they could play in its most profound sensitivity and other, causing discomfort as it was not easy to turn a moment of delight in what is supposed to go to the theater to have fun!, distracted or, in the most elusive to find a catharsis with something funny to do him dislocate his reality full of worries and daily stress loads. Yarn a theater under the straitjacket of the testimonial which three actresses and an actor subject to the visual direction of a concept that is eight-handed, four directors (Orlando Arocha, Juan José Martín , July Bouley and Richard Portier ) set up a meeting by the crude incisive run and fascinating topic for the ability to interweave as managers of a unit of aesthetic significance - and conceptual art, I could see "more encouraged to unsuspecting viewers to tune as inducing the (s) frame (s) that did (n) after the assembly. The performance given by actresses such as Diana Volpe (plumb and effective technique in the management corpogestual and the voice inflections always made to be as focused on their role); Magali Serrano (we always looked carefree and full of inner grace that does not undermine its quest for characterization) and Haydee Faverola (assuming a hard paper yet forceful pushing the viewer's attention thanks to the ability to generate refined subtleties behind the understanding / exposure that merited the construct of character he had to deal with) joined the interpretive work of actor - director, who Ricardo Nortier meshes perfectly with the line leading to the proposal and showing that he could show the room that dual expression of character - such as the role of patient self-directed. Taking some of the ideas that the same group gave to the press quote to give an idea of \u200b\u200bwhat they looked like stage work: "Through the literary testimonies of those affected, structured in four blocks, runs through this process condition from the outbreak, through the stigma, waking up to the recovery-or output, that would be suicide "Undoubtedly, this idea was expressed with honesty, with integrity and with an authentic channel to say things to our society still the abyssal unknown backgrounds that schizophrenia can be displayed in full s. XXI. Moving and we work actively to enjoy thinking more than to evade. The contemplation of a work of artistic creation as that achieved counterplay Theatre with cows must be pulled off the cliff once again indicates that this group does not conform to easily or far-fetched efforts. If the risk was to provoke the attention span for a time, generate discussion that transcended space - time of contemplation, to shake the apathy or disdain that a disease as it is because some things in our society, not only because this is what which in my humble reception but it could contain valid with what they stated in their press release to the media: "the spectators tortuous and complex universe of people with different types of schizophrenia, providing a critical look at the stigma and stereotypes imposed on the condition of the patients and their families and go, not without a certain fascination, the colorful, poignant and contradictory language of patients, able to make us doubt about the most basic conventions about the "madness" and "normal." This was a truly medullary axis and was obtained from the armchair in which spectators could only scan to check with a direct or sideways to look the rest of the spectators on that day of the season in the month of February were intriguing to me. The purpose of assembling this "theater of testimony" I am sure stalled deep in each of us and thus, in my heart I dare say it seems: Bravo!
