Hebras.... lalallaalala
hmmmm no se, eeeh no se de que hablaaaaaaar y no se why i was writing in spanish
sfol;kass oon wednesday... we stayed after school to watch roberto's play: Hebras. We entered the stage and we smelled the *insert english name of the smell here* which sets the mood very quickly. Lights... at the centre shining from above, and the lights turned off... actors in... lights on. play starts
Actors use a blank mask to get rid of all traits, audience identification and facial expression, this is because the characters are just individuals... could be anyone since they are no one and the spectator gives the meaning to their actions... the spectator in his brains builds the character which could be anyone, as the actions and sequences done by the actos could be anything and it is up to the actor and his memory, understanding and emotions to see what he/she wants to see.
I will now talk more about the desindividualization (word that seems not to be in the dictionary so... yeah... you will understand right?) ok... sooo this idea, as far as i understand, ( i will summarize it for when i read this again next year i can remember) is that 1 man can represent different personalities and at the same can represent no personality at all by abstracting him to the point that he/she has no traits, and therefore can change into anything, or be representing anything at the same time as it is representing nothing. That is my definition of it. In a shor phrase: Being nothing can lead you to be representing anything and everything at the same time. - desindividualization, ta daaah
the play (its not 3am, but its 12:30 so it is still a good time to blog :D) made differet spectators, as they mentioned after the play, that they undrstood different things and could relate it to different situations. I would say it funny if it wasn't that they were bliss to the background information that they were asking trying to find out what was the REAL situation that was happening, while it was supposed to be that way.
You long ago told me that is was impossible to make a play that could mean completely different things to different audiences (in one of my blogs) but now you make a play that does that... OOH THE IRONY
okay so yes.. indeed... a mask will let a actor get rids of all traits and let him perform as something else. If the "mask" does not help the actor to transform his performance, then it is not a mask... but a prop or make up. When an actor puts a mask on, he has to rely more on the body, as the body will change the emotion on the mask, so the body changes the mask in a certain way, but does the mask changes the body? If it does... to what extent does a mask will change the body of an actor? Does the body rely on the mask also?

A rather disorganized entry, with some inetresting ideas but also with some parts that are impossible to understand. An entry needs structure and organization of thought, rather than just vomiting whatever ideas come to your mind at the time you're writing. In the end, if you read your entry, you'll notice that you're really not saying anything about the play. There is little or no analysis, and it is not clear what your vision of the play is: it seems that you have nothing to say about it.
