Betiana Blum: “Theatre is alive, you don’t have to get it right the first time” | Stars in “Coqueluche” at Multiteatro

In this sense, the actress clarified that she “It’s Muscari’s work,” not the one in which the great Argentine comedian starred.

In addition, he talked about the “reunion” on stage with his partner in Waiting for the Chariot (1985), Monica Villa: “When I found out I was going to be in the play, I was very happy.. Plus, she does a very nice job, a very special nun,” she said, laughing.

Whooping cough is the free version directed and adapted by Muscari about the comedy that Niní Marshall and Thelma Biral starred in for several seasons. Blum plays the diva Victoria and the young actress and dancer Julieta Poggio (which this year achieved popularity for its participation in Big Brother) plays Coqueluche. This generational crossing will give life to the forced and complicated relationship that a theatrical diva “from the old days” must establish with a girl from a boarding school for nuns, to whom the mother superior (Monica Villa) puts shelter in the actress’s mansion in the face of the whooping cough epidemic that invades the institution. The contrast between the refinement of the diva and the vulgarity of the young woman will make coexistence a challenge for both.

“Before starting (the performance) there is an effervescence in the audience. Is awesome. And then people participate a lot,” said Betiana.

“What theater has is that it is alive, you don’t have to get it right the first time.. You are up on stage with the audience. It is a great responsibility. I really like people’s laughter. What happens is that laughter and crying are not separate. You can cry with laughter and vice versa. “It is a very beautiful and very genuine expression of the human being,” he concluded.
