In statements to Prensa Latina, the artistic director of the event, Graciela Nicola, highlighted the intention to promote cultural integration while respecting national identities and explained that the novelty this year is the fusion of meetings that were previously held separately.
We dedicated several days to theater and everything related to the performing arts, its disciplines and different techniques, and in another month we devoted ourselves to music. In this edition they are united, but the format is the same, he noted.
During the days, seminars and workshops will be held, and in the evenings, presentations are planned that are generally related to the genre that was taught in the pedagogical part, he said.
In addition, he indicated that the public can access all the activities for free and from 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., local time, there will be an open microphone space for everyone who has a poem, a short story or something. that they want to share.
The poetic background of the actress and the actor, Does the new tango exist?, Singing and the human voice, Physical Theater: body, state and presence, The poetics of space, Choir and Uruguayan murga performance and The characters and their characterization voice, are some of the classes organized for this edition.
Among the guests are the director of the Argentine Dubbing School, Dany de Alzaga, and the baritone of the Teatro Colón, Enrique Gibert.
La Movida emerged in 2008 with the aim of exchanging working methods and techniques between Uruguayans and Argentines, but artists from other nations began to join.
In addition, it was designed to attract the participation of trained actors, fans, neighbors and visitors.
The presence of Cuba has special significance because it is also part of a program of activities carried out on the island and in its representations abroad to celebrate the culture of the Caribbean nation.
At first, the Movida was only a River Plate exchange. Over time we were weaving networks with countries like France, Costa Rica, Spain, Venezuela and Chile, but around five years ago we established a very beautiful relationship with Cuba, commented Nicola.
The island’s participation will be in the two musical nights, the opening and closing. In the first there will be the Chekeré trio with proposals of the new trova and son, and in the closing the pianist Luis Lugo, he noted.
The Phonia group, the Tango Jazz Quartet, Vocal Buenos Aires (Argentina) and Parientes (Uruguay) will also perform at the event.
