Review of Luis de Luis Otero

Note from Horacio Otheguy

Note from Jose Miguel Vila

According to researcher Antonia Amo “Amaranta Osorio’s theater speaks of death, life, transmission, relays, the fight to get out of the shadows and to break the bonds of a patriarchal system that infiltrates the territories of the intimate.” (Sobre tus alas), which dominates economic-social relations (Akuakuaue) and which echoes the political inheritances of recent Spain (Regresar es irse) Feminism Yes, because it responds to the will committed to get rid of patterns of violence, both physical and symbolic, generated by domination that has declined until today in the masculine.

And always, in this goal of creating a theater for human justice, kindness, hope, compassion, benevolence always ends up winning, in one way or another. Amaranta Osorio’s theater is, ultimately, an antidote to the apathy of forgetfulness. It is a firm plea to defend the sovereignty of memory in the construction of the I and the we.”

Workshop- 2 months

 

 

Amaranta will teach the workshop “Writing with what there is” within the Celcit courses organized by Hernán Gene.

An online drama workshop from February 4 to March 25. Every Tuesday at 7pm.
