Cartografía del amor roto

Un homenaje al derecho a revelarse contra la dictadura del amor feliz

Cartografía del amor roto es una pieza coral que reúne monólogos y duetos sobre amores que no se dieron, o no sobrevivieron, que dolieron o que dejaron marcas profundas. Cada escena traza un territorio del amor fracturado - el amor migrante, el amor violento, el amor ausente, el amor materno, el amor que sobrevive en la memoria -. La propuesta construye un mapa emocional desde voces femeninas y masculinas, vivas y muertas, reales y simbólicas, que se ahogan frente a la “dictadura del amor feliz”.

En su estética, la obra construye un espacio único y compartido por todas las historias: un edificio imaginario donde cada residencia alberga un amor roto. Apenas una cama, una cocina, una chimenea, y unas bancas exteriores son elementos mínimos que se repiten como ecos en la cotidianidad de una vida cualquiera. Las escenas se enlazan unas con otras como si sucedieran al mismo tiempo o en departamentos contiguos, donde los vecinos se ahogan en su propio dolor. Esa vecindad simbólica hace de los diez momentos una totalidad, un mismo cuerpo escénico. Aunque los personajes viven en soledad sus dramas, al final se encuentran en los cuerpos de los actores y el acto de acompañarse se convierte en la forma más humana de contener al otro.Read more
