Arguably, the next edition of the Havana International Theatre Festival will be a great show for the performing arts. The event will feature 20 nations and 73 groups with more than 75 shows, as well as the workshops taught by American Peter Goldfarb and French-Chilean Evelyn Biecher, and numerous theoretical side programs.<\/p>\n
Among the highlights of the international exhibition to be presented in the country from October 25 are joint projects between the U.S. and Cuba: Anna in the Tropics, of FUNDarte and The Public Theater, and the case of the Moon, of the Artefactus Cultural Project. Also from North America come Montera (Dragons in the scaffold) and La Diva (Ana Asencio), both in collaboration with Spain.<\/p>\n
The Chilean theater, which many times has set the trend in our scenarios, comes this time in co-productions with Germany and France. Those are the cases Calcetines, mentiras y vino (by the already known in Cuba Alvaro Solar) and Frag No.3 Aproximaci\u00f3n a la idea de desconfianza (PitouStrash Company and Evelyn B.).<\/p>\n
In the words of Julio Cesar Ramirez, actor and artistic director of the event, in this Festival converge strongly one-man shows, but also “performative samples, musicals, classic review, emerging authors, technologies and devices complementing scenarios, works for open spaces, narratives and ideologies of our disparate cultures, fiction or documentation of our societies, heterogeneous public search and Conservatorship marked by delicate homage to the master Stanislavski “.<\/p>\n
The artistic director of the event, Noel Bonilla said that during that time there will be a segment in time and space devoted to the commissioning of works that have achieved national awards in other events. These include Se durmi\u00f3 en los laureles, by Teatro papalote; El flaco y el gordo, by Peque\u00f1o Teatro de la Habana; and La legionaria, by Pancho Garc\u00eda.<\/p>\n
While it is true that the national sample is not composed of almost any opening, Bonilla highlighted Antigonon: A contingent epic, by The Public Theater. In the case of theater for children, perhaps the only works that didn\u2019t participate in the Festival de Teatro de Camag\u00fcey are Alicia en busca del conejo blanco, by Teatro de las Estaciones and Los pintores, a proposal for the younger members of Teatro Escambray.<\/p>\n
The theoretical section of the Festival will offer the opportunity to learn about aesthetic experiences in the voice of Dr. Benjamin Wihstutz from Germany, on the presence of Stanislavski in Cuban theater, intervention by Norge Espinosa, and, among other things, on experimental and young theater direction, with assistance from several playwrights present at the event. Also in this space the UNIMA CUBA Forum will take place on puppeteers for dialogue and visual evolution of that kind of theater.<\/p>\n
Look then for when you hear the name of Anna Karenina, you will know that the 15 International Theater Festival of Havana in the Avellaneda Hall of the National Theater of Cuba has kicked off.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
