The Centro # Dramático Nacional premieres «Siglo mio, bestia mía», by Lola Blasco, directed by Marta Pazos


The Valle-Inclán Theater hosts the world premiere of this text, awarded with the 2016 National Prize for Dramatic Literature

Co-produced by # Dramático y Voadora, the work presents a committed and political look at a world in crisis passed through the author's most poetic and intimate sieve

The staging is carried out by Marta Pazos, leader of the avant-garde Galician company Voadora, and has Bruna Cusí, Jose Díaz, Miquel Insua, César Louzán, Hugo Torres and the author herself in the cast

Tomorrow it opens in the Francisco Nieva Room of the Valle-Inclán Theater of the # Dramático Nacional Center, My century, my beast, work for which Lola blasco received the 2016 National Prize for Dramatic Literature, and developed under the program of Development of Current Dramaturgies with which INAEM supports the creation of new and innovative dramatic texts each year.

With the metaphor of a whaling ship as the place from which the action unfolds, Blasco addresses horror, suffering, through the beauty of poetry. Defined by the author as "the emotional cartography of an era", Blasco affirms that the work "speaks of the personal crisis, the crisis of a political system, even the crisis of a value system." Behind the characters of this maritime journey to meet the white beast lies a historical, political and social story about the confrontation of cultures, prejudices towards what is different, and even lack of love.

Marta Pazos, whom the author invited to direct the text, highlights that what captivated her from the first reading was that “it is a deeply poetic work, about a woman who is broken with love, trying to get ahead in the middle of nowhere; and how by placing his body in the wind, he manages to leave the pain of the past behind and look to the future with light ”.

Pazos, who is co-founder, artistic director and playwright of Voadora -co-producers of the montage together with # Dramático- carries out a staging that draws on the personal style of the renowned Galician company, with its own language based on visual arts, music, the hybridization of disciplines and stage research. And he recognizes a special illusion to return to the Centro # Dramático Nacional, where he has already landed on previous occasions in front of productions such as his celebrated version of Summer night Dream, Garage, a poetic investigation on the change in the role of women in the European socio-economic framework, or the video creation I'm human, shot during confinement for the online programming of the # Dramatic "The CDN window".

The cast of My century, my beast It is composed of the author herself, Lola blasco, Bruna Cusí (Goya for Best New Actress in 2018 for Summer, 1993), Jose Díaz, Miquel Insua, César Louzán Y Hugo Torres.

My century, my beast will be from the eleven from November to 20 December in the Francisco Nieva Room dthe Valle-Inclán Theater.

Tribes is an award-winning text by English playwright Nina Raine that is performed for the first time in Spanish under the direction of Julián Fuentes Reta

Produced by # Dramático with the collaboration of Octubre Producciones, it will premiere on November 6 at the Valle-Inclán Theater, where it will run until December 27

The cast includes deaf and hearing actors, and performances will be accessible to people with hearing disabilities every day

This morning the new production of the Centro # Dramático Nacional, in collaboration with Octubre Producciones, was presented to the media, which staged an unpublished text in Spain by the British playwright Nina raine. Tribes It is directed by Julian Fuentes Reta -Responsible, among many other productions, for staging in our country the two successful pieces by Andrew Bovell When it stops raining Y The things that I know are true– and opens this Friday, November 6 at the Valle-Inclán Theater.

Tribes is one of Raine's most celebrated works –of whom the #Dramático has already premiered another piece, Consentimpetus, in 2018, with which Magüi Mira won the Valle-Inclán Prize for her direction. Released in 2010 at the Royal Court in London, it has garnered multiple international awards, in addition to being premiered in various states of the United States or Canada. This will be the first time it will be released in Spanish, with a translation and adaptation by Jorge Muriel.

The assembly is also the result of a long work process. Since 2015, Fuetes Reta points out, he has been trying to bring the play to the stage. "We have a magnificent text that has been staged many times with all hearing actors, but in our case the process was longer due to the decision to integrate deaf interpreters." Thus, the project found in the CDN's ‘A different look – Challenge 2019’ festival the support it needed, a framework that allowed them to carry out different workshops and work sessions with associations of deaf people and experts. "We wanted to better understand their culture and be able to offer the two leading roles to deaf actors and actresses from Madrid," says the director.

Ángela Ibáñez, who has worked as an actress on previous occasions in the # Dramático – highlights her participation in Empty shellsby Magda Labarga and Laila Ripoll, or Mother Courage and her children, directed by Ernesto Caballero- plays the character of Silvia, who upon entering Guille's life (played by Marcos Pereira), deaf from birth but raised in a hearing family, will make him and his entire family question “no conventional ”, what is the difference between tolerance and acceptance. The cast is completed by Enric Benavent, Ascen López, Jorge Muriel and Laura Toledo, giving life to that family that acts as a tribe and serves as a vehicle to talk about (in) communication.

Tribes It is, above all, a comedy, according to Fuentes Reta, and a work that uses deafness as a kind of metaphor to talk about the will to communicate or not, regardless of the vehicle to do so. With a text that the director qualifies as "sharp, luminous and sometimes dark and opaque", "Tribes is a tour de force extremely funny and deeply unforgiving, ”according to Fuentes Reta.

It is a piece that also aims to bring the reality of the world of deaf people closer to hearing, and that "makes us reflect on what it means to speak and what it means to listen." In attention to the entire deaf community, Tribes it will be fully accessible to them throughout their exhibition, having integrated auditory accessibility into the artistic proposal itself.

Tribes It is exhibited from November 6 to December 27 at the Valle-Inclán Theater

"The boy in the last row", by Juan Mayorga, directed by Andrés Lima arrives at the CDN


Produced by Sala Beckett, the play premiered in Barcelona last year and arrives in Madrid with a renewed cast, led by Alberto San Juan and Guillermo Toledo

It opens on October 14 at the María Guerrero Theater, where it will be held until November 8

This morning the next premiere of the National Dramatic Center was presented to the media, The boy in the last row, of Juan Mayorga, directed by Andres Lima, which will be exhibited at the Maria Guerrero Theater from October 14 to November 8. It is one of the most represented texts by the author. Not only was he awarded a MAX, but he was brought to film with great success by French director François Ozon under the title In the House and it is also included as one of the reference texts in the reading programs of public institutes. The piece deals with the link between a student and his literature teacher. "A play about the pleasure of looking at the lives of others and about the risks of confusing what is lived with what is imagined, a text that wants to make the act of imagining theater", according to Mayorga.

The boy in the last row It is also a work that brings together for the ninth time two renowned figures from the Spanish scene. Among other distinctions, Andrés Lima has received the National Theater Award and Juan Mayorga the Dramatic Literature Award. His collaboration as author and director has left us such memorable productions as Alejandro and Ana: what Spain could not see of the wedding banquet of the president's daughter of Animalario; Shock (The Condor and the Puma), which recently earned Lima the fifth MAX Award for Best Director; or Hamelin (MAX for Best Theater Show in 2006), a text that Mayorga has come to define as the literary father of The boy in the last row.

According to Andrés Lima these titles, Hamelin Y The boyThey are precisely "two of Mayorga's best works", of whose texts his sense of theatricality stands out, his way of approaching the mysterious of the human soul and the dark areas of the mind and his concern for the contemporary world; a theater heir to German philosophy and theater, as well as the Spanish Baroque and that always asks the pertinent questions; "A modern theater in the strictest sense of the word."

The boy in the last row it is a brilliant piece that makes complex things simple, adds Lima. “Starting from a specific anecdote, he makes a display from which we can contemplate all the facets of the human being: the betrayal of brotherhood, the parent-child relationship, the teacher-student relationship, the awakening of sexuality, the danger of adolescence, the birth of an artist… ”, he assures.

Juan Mayorga, for his part, highlights from the Lima direction "the complicity and rapport he achieves with and among the cast, who risks as with few directors, and seems to be one body." The boy in the last row, which produced and premiered the Sala Beckett last year, arrives in Madrid with a semi-renewed cast. The Barcelona cast remain young boys, embodied by Guillem Barbosa (in the role of Claudio) and his friend, Arnau comasBoth "great discoveries", according to Lima; and complete the cast Pilar Castro, Natalie Pinot, Alberto San Juan Y Guillermo Toledo, four regular interpreters from Lima with whom he has shared a vital complicity for a long time, which transmits to this show “a special life”, in the director's words.
