From November 3
ME, SATAN UNDER THE CHURCH OF
A comedy which tackles the subject of the Church as a rule under which millions of pilgrims converge
as if it were of a multinational
Artistic Creation Centre TET and clustering counterplay Theater joined in a co-production to give life to the piece I, Satan, original English playwright Antonio Alamo, version of his novel Nata Am. It is a comedy directed by Juan José Martín enjoys the patronage of the Embassy of Spain, and which may be enjoyed by the public from Friday 3 to Sunday 26 November at the Teatro Luis Peraza of Los Chaguaramos.
In the book, the author uses both a police-style intrigue (a mysterious dossier, surveillance ...) sprinkled with humor, and a gallery of obscure characters (cardinals, exorcists, bureaucrats and even the Pope) to offer an ironic approach to the Vatican today, an organization that is home to one billion souls.
History shows the church as an institution that tries to reconcile his speech with their practice, "in a tortuous path to converge a particular vision of humanity with the exercise of power," said Juan Jose Martin, and "in this sense, the Church is seen as the government of any country. " The book introduces a lot of irony and humor with a curious situation: if the Pope began to doubt the existence of the Holy Spirit, what are the consequences?
The central character of I, Satan, Fray Olivares Gaspar arrives at the Vatican and is a worrying picture: he is forced to admit that the behavior of the Holy Father leaves much to be desired ... Suspicion and intrigue have taken over the Vatican and seems to threaten the continuity of the Church, but the confusion and the latest scandal is yet to come.
Alamo itself, to define his work, says "it's a comic thriller and a metaphysical operetta. I, Satan speaks of the multinational oldest extant on this planet, and the expression belongs only to the theologian Leonardo Boff. In any case it is an organization that has over a billion souls and has been forced to constantly mutate to adapt to historical changes. So amazing the Church has always managed to occupy a prominent place. Who hold that its real power has declined in this is totally misguided. Just think about the fall of communism, one of its main architects was the late Pope. Yes, I could not be achieved with the threat of all nuclear missiles from the other half of the world, did this tiny state of just 44 hectares. "
I, Satan has performances by Omar Gonzalez (National Theatre Award 2006 ), Guillermo Diaz Yuma, Markel Méndez, Ludwig Pineda, William Goite, Israel Moreno and Jesus Sosa. The costume design and scenery is Orlando Arocha, sound mixing and Xavier Agudo, lighting design director Juan José Martín own and overall production of TET and Theatre groups counterplay.
The power of the Church continues
As indicated by the director, the staging of I, Satan is very respectful of the universe of text, which presents a strong vision, yet consistently evocative, controversial. "It's a comedy about power, power that is built on the basis of a discourse that begins to question himself."
In the case of the interpreters, Martin notes that the more serious situations, the higher gravity, the more tension, more gracious will seem to the viewer.
Another curious element of this production is the possibility that has the viewer to witness a comedy where the protagonists are bishops and priests, in some underground areas to go where the echoes of the Mass being celebrated in the church, a few steps up.
