new gods
This 2022 they have added a new element: the role of God will change every night, not only structurally, but because of the unique style of three outstanding talents. They will be Daniel Sarcos, Giorgio Siladi and Tony Almontwho will sing some Whitney Houston hits, in their style.
The singer Giorgio Siladi, former member of Bocatabú and resident in Mexico, was grateful for having been chosen for the role, this being his return to the Dominican stage. “I will have a pretext to sing live the songs of Whitney Houston, which I love,” he said excitedly in a video.
A rock artist who has led the band Toque Profundo will put his voice to the test to sing some songs from the “Diva del soul”. Tony Almont is happy with his role. “I come from the syndicate of gods,” Almont said humorously, adding, “What I like most about my character is projecting a closeness that everyone needs, whatever their idea of God.”
Daniel Sarcos, although he has a marked fame as an entertainer, in the theater it unfolds completely. Not many know the facet of her singer in the beginning. In addition, in the country she was part of the successful musical “Mamma Mía!, produced by Amaury Sánchez in 2018. The cast valued Sarcos’ talent and his challenge to sing again. In addition, there will be a live band composed of four musicians.
Natalie Borsos, Dominican dancer, teacher and choreographer, is in charge of the choreographic direction.
Love message
The experienced theater director María Castillo will be in charge of the direction and the musician Junior Basurto Lomba will be the director musical.
For the playwright, being immersed in this work allowed her to discover other ways of thinking. “It’s a musical made by very young people who have a very different vision of the world than my generation. It talks about freedom and love where God is a central character. It is a different kind of work, iconoclastic”, reflects Castillo.
In the musicals, the name of Gracielina Olivero is present. The actress highlights the strength of the piece that “God loves us as we are. That’s the message.”
Karla Fatulewhen talking with DL, he saw that it was a challenge to act and produce “The call” and was eager to go on stage.
“María Casado, my character, is still that girl who runs away from the convent in search of a producer to sign her. Imagine that God appears to you singing Whitney Houston songs, she’s crazy! I don’t know how María Casado is going to react, ”she comments happily as if she were in front of the audience. Outstanding actress Laura Lebrón will play Karla’s friend, Susana Romero.
“Susana is refreshing, with a lot of energy, I know her much better. That dream that she has of being an artist I carry with me too. I will be singing very cool songs”, highlighted the actress.
For Jose Llano the montage, far from religion, is about faith. This is what he believes: “It is the ability to welcome everyone, how they see their God and make it super personal.”
The producers indicate that among the topics that the theatrical production will touch on are the concerns of adolescence, dreams to fulfill, friendship and love.
