El Teatro es un Sueño
[Theater Is a Dream]
A tribute to theater, the show by the group Yuyachkani occupies open spaces, creating a moment of fantasy where everyday life and staged performance are combined. As live music plays, masked figures appear and blend into the audience while they wait for a theatrical performance. But they are soon surprised by the arrival of characters from the anticipated work, who escape from the stage. Inspired by the writing with the same title by the Peruvian poet César Vallejo, included in the essay Notas sobre una Nueva Estética Teatral, the play aims to free theater-making from old conceptual margins, using dream as a metaphor to articulate its dramaturgy. The sessions are the outcome of a production-workshop and include Peruvian and Brazilian artists.
Yuyachkani is a peruvian group that has been continuously active for 53 years, combining tradition and modernity. Its name in quechua means “I’m thinking,” “I’m remembering.” Its work can be read in parallel with different moments of its country’s social and political reality, in dialogue with different times and proposing critical, nonconformist theater. It is currently acknowledged in the educational field as a center of performing arts research connected to the peruvian and latin american culture.
