Four works that address the theme of deception open the first season of 2022 in the micro-theater space.
The mischief and secrets of the infidels will do their thing in the rooms of Pop Up. The micro-theater space premieres its season 64, the first of 2022, with four theatrical pieces that border the theme called Infidels
“Every month at Pop Up we try to orient the works towards a specific theme … this month we wanted to address the issue of infidelity, not specifically from the history that we all already know, but from stories that revolve around that theme, where you can see the consequences … “Mentions David Castro, artistic director of the space.
In this way, the billboard is made up of micro-works The kiss of your life, with Sebastian Perdomo Y Alejandra Rodriguez; This is not what it seems, with Isabella perez Y David Castro; Amanda lover, with Marcelo Galvez Y Belu Idrobo; Y Secrets, with Paula Lituma Y Heidy Ortega.
“All the works are approached from a certain comic nuance, not necessarily all are completely comedy …”, affirms Castro, who also acts in one of the plays.
This is how the stories are varied: a daughter who discovers her mother’s infidelity on her graduation day, a film director who has an affair with the star of her film, a man who looks for an unconventional way to hide his infidelity and a newly married couple who uncovers a hoax are part of the options that the public will be able to enjoy.
Castro, who wrote three of the works, says they were based on personal experiences and stories from close friends. “Beyond the situations, the texts are things that we have heard and that we have experienced. I always say that they have all been unfaithful to us, we just don’t know. Infidelity is not only the sexual act of being with another person, who is not your partner, there are many things … “, points out.
“I believe that through humor, many people are going to feel identified with certain phrases, with certain situations. Also all the works invite a little to reflect on this subject and if it is really worth it. Each work at the end has its surprise … “, he assures.
This season is presented throughout the month, from Wednesday to Sunday, from 7:30 p.m. The entrance to each work has a cost of $ 5. They are for sale at the box office, website or Pop Up application.
For a theater-filled 2022!
Actor and director Ricardo Velasteguí He hopes that this year the reactivation will be much stronger. The founder of Pop Up says they already have the 2022 schedule set up.
“We have high expectations that this year is going to be much better than the previous one. Last year was not a great year, but in relation to 2020, I think we overcome a lot of things that were holding us back. We hope that 2022 will be better, in which the artistic question in the city continues to be reactivated, that the public continues to go out to social and artistic events, because that helps us a lot ”, Velasteguí exposes.
“We have an armed program for the whole year, with totally different themes, which summons totally different actors”he adds. (I)
