Agua, Sol y Sereno |
by Trabajo

directed
by
Pedro Adorno |
|
About the Play: “Una de Cal
y Una de Arena”, is an experimental theater piece about the changes
brought about development in Puerto Rico during the last forty years.
The story is told by construction workers and their bosses, who with
apparently unconnected objects – a block, a zinc sheet, a hammer and
enormous tractor wheels – rhythmically denounce the manner in which
nature is being destroyed in favor of an oppressive police of
development. Through dialogue, movement and music performed with
industrial debris, the stage is transformed into a passionate
construction company. |

Teatro de la Luna |

directed
by Jacqueline Briceño |

About the play:
This theatrical experience is a voyage
through one of the most recognized stories of fantastical literature,
PINOCCHIO, by the Italian storyteller, Carlos Collodi, in a staging
designed for young actors who bring to life several characters, dances
and songs, putting into practice their skills and their playful and
creative impulses. Four actors introduce to the audience the tender
story of Papa Gepetto and his wooden doll, who one day comes to life to
learn about lying and human ambition, as well as respect and love, in a
game of good and evil which allows the children in the audience to draw
their own conclusions and express them along with the actors. |
