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
