"Celebration" Playful Look at the Celebration
| | ||||||
| most impressive thing about this show is the theatrical game in which players create different situations, assisted by boards with wheels, chairs, chalk, erasers, plus some props. With these simple elements, plus the deployment of voice and interpretation, Public Theatre reviews facts or creates situations to convey their point of view. Among the highlights last game of Metropolis, through the time when an everyday situation explains the issue of property, its use by capitalism and the birth of the camps.
The action is structured through a collage of moments that happen quickly, accompanied by live music that creates atmosphere and gives a counterpoint of popular expression and emotion. The scenes are approached in a Brechtian, ie a didactic spirit, to teach the public, to show a reality. In fact, at various points the actors appeal to the viewer directly. Another substantive proceedings are well proportioned as to intent and histrionics, with a high standard for all, indicating that the direction of Patricia Artés points to the substantive. The same applies to the rhythm: nothing is superfluous, nothing is lacking, there is absolute precision. The only detail that has nothing to do with the look of the group on the facts presented or the message to get across (this is not for criticism), is overly discursive texts, which makes them heavy and little indigestible at first listen. That adds to some assertions too pamphleteering, in contrast with other texts and, indeed, against the strength of what is shown, too many.

" Celebration "is one of the creations that arise as a reaction to the Bicentennial, and what waiting for us on September 18 is approaching. This time, the Public Theatre group performed a collective creation, with Cristian Aravena, around a string of silence in these two hundred years and that have shaped the Movimiento Popular. The role of the people in the country's development is reviewed by the company from a perspective which demonstrates the injustices experienced, and silenced by official history.

Chile in the Bicentennial is the task of "Celebration", directed by Patricia Artés assembly and written jointly by the Public Theater in conjunction with Cristian Aravena. The work presents the history of Chile nonlinear untold, those events were decided silence or directly modified to protect the powerful, as well as to allocate to groups or indigenous people's power, characteristics of barbarism and terrorism, building on Thus a reductionist narrative, full of lies and abuse.
remarkable success in staging is the time when a clock stops running for a minute and players write names on the boards thousands of deaths that occurred in different massacres in these two centuries.
Moreover, in another scene we see three young men playing "Metropolis", who reflect on capitalism, the history of the populations of Chile and economic inequality that exists between life in the flag and Las Condes. Or use a simple, yet symbolic scenic resource such as bulletin boards (chalk) becomes clearly significant in each of the scenes. A history taught us straight through them and we are also we can rewrite it. They are drawn images that complement the scenery, inviting imagine many possible moments history of our country.
"Celebration" is a work of mostly based on improvisation and the opinions of their creators. Explore the style of Brecht, using it as a teaching tool, intends to open a debate, dialogue with the public, confronting it with this other story, one that is not found in books of Frias Valenzuela and many others that have not been made by painful episodes of Chile.

The assembly of the Public Theater company seeks to represent how the last two hundred years of "Pico in the eye" constitutes a cultural trait that should not be ignored before the next national celebrations.

The celebration of the bicentennial of Chile continues to motivate a series of artistic events, rather than join the celebration of the freedom they would enjoy the national community two hundred years, attempts to formulate a critical view of the development process. Thus, in seeking to realize that the official historical narrative has ignored the exercise of marginalization, relentlessly, they have developed those having control of the social, economic and political community. Thus, the assembly instructions 2010 (Lastarria 90, 2009) and Ernesto (Sala Sergio Aguirre, 2010) attempted to deconstruct that mark inaugural intended to install the idea of \u200b\u200bnational unity that should be commemorated, while What being left on the road (Ex Congress, 2010) and man beset by demons a mirror (Teucer, 2010) sought material effects generate about the life in a new context, the historical marginalization (The reference both assemblies dramatic texts corresponds to the decade of 60) not recorded by official accounts . Celebration
, assembly this month the company presented Public Theater, comes to this critical discussion on the modernization parallels the development of capitalism and violence that today constitute processes, supported by the official story an apparent reason to celebrate. The play opens its fragmented structure with a statement of principles that seek to question the truths that claims history. A narrator says: "The light is what has always pointed out through history and mythology, as awareness or knowledge of man, which is why this time will be our guide. Look what a coincidence, another source of light: a book. This was my book of history and geography in school. This same book today, I will to talk about our history. The story, as we know, so you see, linear ... The story is also a narrative construction, discursive, textual, compressible, and above all conducive corrected, by whom, as well, who can write, in any case always has to do with the victors. " Thus, one begins to question who we have reason to celebrate.
Then ensues a series of fragments that, in a dialectic (and this is the value of the assembly, as opposed to the Manichean taught history classes at school, especially between 1973 and 1989) and nonlinear, looking to build a map of the story ignored in the past two hundred years. Thus a child playing war of seventy-three with his plastic soldiers, he learns that if only one side was armed could not be a war, a girl understands that he must invade land occupations board "My big capital "which has been controlled by a monopoly player, which in turn seeks to eliminate the girl if you can not possibly consume, Luis Emilio Recabarren questioned how the anniversary was held behind closed doors, without the people, and a peak in one eye (shaped it by the last letter of the word "No" in the poster of the opposition in the plebiscite of 88) realize how violent it was agreed transition. Celebration
seek to question the official account and add new variables in the debate. Thus, before concluding we could ask a few questions and then, especially if you've been to the theater, could make a series of transformations. Celebration
