Perpetually Ricardo Roca Rey – Caretas Tradition

58

One of the treasured methods to stay in time is when those that love and admire you bear in mind us. Thus, the outdated Lima corridor of the Affiliation of Beginner Artists (AAA), based 86 years in the past, celebrates with 6 works, as a public providing, to honor the unforgettable promoter of the performing arts tradition in Peru: Ricardo Roca Rey (1920-1985). It’s a gesture of persistent gratitude for somebody who devoted his life to the theater and had a fervent dedication to the persistent AAA.

The quick cycle begins with The good theatre of the world by Pedro Calderón de la Barca, a traditional of Western theatre, which was a extremely applauded manufacturing by Roca Rey. This time, in a summarized key, extra for pedagogical functions, the manufacturing has extra future potentialities and alternatives than related outcomes. However, with The human voice by Jean Cocteau, the shifting dramatization that the script calls for, the extreme illustration of heartbreak, the ache of being deserted by somebody in love, has an ample scenic texture and a efficiency that lives as much as the emotional calls for. However, Make-up by Jorge Eduardo Eielson, whose libretto was by no means misplaced however somewhat safeguarded within the AAA archives, is a revealing and radiant manufacturing, possessing the delicate environment that the poet proposes, with a measured imaginative and prescient of area and the tenuous existential absurdity; Eielson’s unpublished work, now on show, is a bid to configure a dramatic structure constant together with his creative ideas.

Within the second a part of the celebratory and unmissable season, we see the clever, visionary, vibrant, imaginative forcefulness of Enrique Solari Swayne with Ajax Telamonius y Collacocha. On this model, Grasshopperis offered as a pressure of conspiring heroisms that acknowledge their weaknesses, combining with agility and freshness the youthful playfulness with instructing with out moralizing, being on the identical time, direct, sane, reflectively cautious. Nonetheless, this homage is sufficient with the interpretation in Collacochaa superlative diploma of appearing ease and a completely up to date, clear-sighted dialogue. Solari is a unprecedented reference in Peruvian theatrical historical past whose works ought to be consistently re-released, one thing that somebody like Roca Rey, with respectful lucidity, was very clear about. It was a virtuous, fraternal, unmatched alliance, which, for years, wherein each collaborated splendidly, took our theater to its new scenic frontiers.

These Momentsfinish with Our city Thornton Wilder’s play, languidly displaying the worth of on a regular basis life by means of the curve of its joys and sorrows. The American work admirably closes this commemoration, whose scenic providing that unfolds is a cultural and beneficiant reward of Peruvian theater.
