" The fault "

The Masquerade JUSTICE

Author: Friedrich Dürrenmatt. Adaptation and dramaturgy: Fernando Sansone. Address: Blanca Portillo. Starring: José Luis García Pérez, Asier Etxeandía, Emma Suarez, Daniel Grau, Fernando Soto, José Luis Torrijo. Slaughterhouse- Ships from English. Madrid.

interesting point of Friedrich Dürrenmatt in this novel converted into a radio script and adapted now by Fernando Sansegundo Blanca Portillo to demonstrate that they lead, and knows, as are six works and it looks the business, "besides acting, work in" The fault " left to an outstanding sextet. Dürrenmatt delves into the dilemma of the limits of justice. But instead of going to the well-worn eye for an eye, make up a disturbing game Portillo key plays in comedy comic touches terrifying: the old friends to dinner which will give the chance of a breakdown, the merchant-super Alfredo Traps José Luis García Pérez, deploying a range of records, self-sufficiency to the desperation takes place in a gothic mansion in which the past ulula and is invoked in ceremonies at the viewer's imagination, which produces nightmares.

But, as usual, the real terror is in life and in oneself. The set of masks to a former judge, prosecutor and lawyer, and any other retiree whose job it is better not to disclose, subject to the guest at a lavish evening is to remember that none are free from blame and that justice reaches where the law does not arrive. It does not sell, but not unmasked in its Hellenic sense, also in the theater, as the author's proposal is pure ritual. Portillo unable to find the essence and adds a dark humor.

The problem is to mix the mask and the masquerade. The choice of latex as a resource, because five young actors portraying-unrecognizable-old, is a bit bizarre and unjustified. Asier Exteandia, Scrooge's rival as the fiscal Machiavellian Thorn, is round. As Jose Luis Torrijos, who plays the lawyer, Daniel Grau, the judge right host, and Fernando Soto, Pilet, effective "servant" with surprise. But there was no old actors trained for the role? Would not it have been a true theatrical greatest option, without artifice? You could even have allowed these actors, not false, demonstrated their ability to be old.

PS is becoming standard in our scenarios abuse text microphones on stage, but the young players should know to get your naked voice to the back rows. If not, there's the TV ...

'Falstaff'

GREAT TAVERN

From Shakespeare texts . Adaptation: Marc Rosich and Andres Lima. Address: A. Lima. Set Design and costumes: Beatriz San Juan. Lighting: Valentín Álvarez. Music: Nick Powell.Caracterización: Cécile Kretschmar. Starring: Peter Casablanca, Raúl Arévalo, Alejandro Saa, Carmen Machi, Rebeca Montero, Alfonso Lara, Rulo Pardo, Chema Adeva, Jesus Barranco, Sonsoles Benedict, Maria Morales, Angel Ruiz, Alfonso Blanco. Teatro Valle-Inclán . Madrid, 18-III-2011.

"Banish the rotund Falstaff and desterraréis the whole world", defends the above in one of the many great lines that collects in "Henry IV." Falstaff, the drunk, the noble funky, colorful and witty friend of revelry of the young Prince Henry, the john and a thief, as Shakespeare himself describes it, is more than a character, a successful intrusion into the human soul, freed from the eyes of prejudice. All that we have transmitted and Andrew Marc Rosich Lima in a show that, as did Orson Welles in the film, brings the two "Henry IV" and from other Shakespearean texts.

This "Falstaff" is a clever job of editing and selection, a maze of characters right relocated-especially those of the lumpen-and a ruthless winnowing of fine poetry and prose cultured in Stratford upon Avon, shattered with malice in translation daring and street. In the end, is the least: a purist cast hands to the head. Firm who enjoyed one of the most vivid and essential assemblies, for its truth and its delivery stage, which has launched the National Dramatic Center long time.

A 'Falstaff', directed by Lima, which are not Animalario production is indebted to his style. Exhibits the virtues of the best "animals" resources and address the outstanding actors 'Urtain "and some of its shortcomings, as the noisy chaos of the insane asylum of" Marat / Sade', reproduced in excess of a tavern soaked in sherry and antics. But even then, captive: the lecherous gun Rulo Pardo, the uneducated Rauda Doña Carmen Machi, the awkward duck Chema Adeva, the mischievous Rompesábanas Dora Rebecca Bartolo amoral Montero and Ángel Ruiz, among others, make up a bestiary ethyl and marginal met with great humor. And most of them fictitious monarch unusual protagonist, a Prince Harry 'carabanchelero "cool, cool, uninhibited and scoundrel Raúl Arévalo, an outstanding record.

While the charm of "Falstaff," lies a priori in his philosophy of low life, this proposal is grown in the cut scenes and battle, which solves Lima vibrant, but politics has nothing to envy to the tavern. There, Alejandro Saa Hotspur gives his ambition and decided to pack angry, and Jesus Barranco solemn and spectral chill to Henry IV. And with them, most notable works from Maria Lara Alfonso Morales.

remains for the final mention of Falstaff, the great-in all senses-star. Peter Casablanca, which has so often proved to be great actor does not disappoint, and developed a powerful portrait of a subject that is the joy of life personified, love of the grape and the need, as a child large, the shadow of the prince. Round would be if it contained the laughter free, with a false beard and pot-bellied Falstaff at times flirts with parody Christmas.

Where I Can Watch Blue Film

" Woyzeck "

EXPERIMENT LOST

Author: Georg Büchner. Version: Juan Mayorga. Director: Gerardo Vera. Starring: Javier Gutiérrez, Lucía Quintana, Jesus Noguero, Helio Pedregal, Markos Marin Marina Seresesky ... Teatro Maria Guerrero . Madrid, 10-III-2011.

The unhappy fate of Woyzeck has to crawl, plunge, move us. What could Robert Wilson when it was thunder at Tom Waits' misery is the river of life. " Because misery only known low-class soldier, meat medical experiments that they will go crazy. But the assembly of the National Dramatic Center has over river pond: Gerardo Vera builds one of his most beautiful in the aesthetic-with folding Wild Reeds forests dominate the gloom, but both its direction and, above However, the version of Juan Mayorga was diluted in the protagonist's bedroom problems.

Büchner wrote in the early nineteenth century avant-garde text that explored the mechanisms of the madness and the daily injustices of fate: the birth or not lucky. That included a marital betrayal Woyzeck drags the scatterbrained wife tragedia.La pariah, an exuberant and joyful Marie Quintana who plays Lucy, is the creation more credible. His carnality us closer to the tragedy and her scenes with the alluring Drum Major of Marko Marin, the antithesis of the protagonist, is overwhelming.

Javier Gutiérrez creates a monochrome Woyzeck, could be any character troubled, and abusing the gesture: what was virtue in his comic is here Animalario Algerian with good intentions that just did not materialize. Such are the hints of Berlin cabaret director, although lacking a century Brecht and Veil, Vera stuffs with a long boot shoe which can be redeemed the good work of the Navy as a garrulous Seresesky master of ceremonies.

But the crux of the matter lies in the protagonist's destruction perpetrated by the system, and in this version so that should be vital, looks like a backdrop. Although Büchner left open by the end, some versions opt for the punishment the murderer. Here is the unknown and with it, the strangeness.

" The Etruscan Smile "

sentimental excesses

Adaptation: JP Heras, apart from the novel by JL Sampedro. Dir: JC Plaza. Cast: H. Alterio, J. Serrano, N. Castro, I. Frías, C. Arranz, O. Rodriguez ... Fine Arts Theatre. Madrid, 15-III-2011.

loyalty lies in virtue and sin of "The Etruscan Smile", a friendly assembly led by José Carlos Plaza based on the beautiful novel by José Luis Sampedro written in 1985. It rained, but the text still fresh and the nonagenarian author lucid, as shown at the premiere. The beautiful prose and deft mixture of tenderness and virility of your pages has not expired, the Calabrian Bruno, old partisan rancor that feeds on old while battling cancer, is taken to Milan by his son and his wife, two insufferable urbanites. In this hostile environment for the rugged old man find love in the warmth of Hortensia and discover paternal feelings never experienced with his grandson, Brunetino.

All this is in the novel and the play. But the theater has to bring differences, not tell. For long moments, recorded voiceover replaces Hector Alterio Alterio-correct itself by the way, like Julieta Serrano, two veteran actors-rather than solid, inviting the question of how far the right choice bit dramatic and where does the trick. Plaza is energetic director, is difficult to justify this, or the overload of sentimentality, the novel is raw moments, and the unfortunate choice of some cast members.

" American Buffalo "

THE GREAT CAMBALACHE

Author: D. Mamet. Dir: J. Manrique. Sets: Ll. Castells, I. Martínez. Cast: I. Benet, P. Lopez, M. Rodríguez. Abbey Theatre . Madrid, 10-VII-2011.

"Today it is the same being a traitor, ignorant, wise or pickpocket, a generous person or a swindler", sings the tango. Julio Manrique nail it the only Latin wink of an assembly hundred percent "Yankie." Don's lair in "American Buffalo" is certainly a swap: in Argentina, "store bought and sold clothing, jewelry, or used furniture," according to the SAR, which also includes the term as "barter done with desire money. " That spirit lives in the three losers who David Mamet in 1985 drew a drama in which rescues Manrique underground humor. What is to come, the "stick" to give to retrieve a valuable coin is just an excuse for what happens between them over an afternoon.

In this dazzling assembly Lliure, enter a motley aroma filled mametiano, which undoubtedly exists in some alley in Brooklyn or Baltimore. Each object in the scenery, decent inventory apart, and each stroke play their role management: it is important to see a snuff strive Teach cigarette to his friend Don turned off or an old flexo uneasy as it crosses the police. Because the theater needs consistency and this work is committed to a code of practice consistent with its aesthetics, and American film "Scorsese would enjoy this show-which offers quiet and genuine turbulence.

are three creatures that life itself is too much for them, and Manrique bid for street realism: Ivan Benet is immense as the paternal Don, Marc Rodriguez started laughing with a complex and Teach, smart, impatient and irascible, and Pol Lopez is all fragile as the "druggie" Bob. Abbey Mamet has programmed the best seen in Madrid in years.
