El Brote

Theatre show by Compañía Criolla about an actor who begins to lose the boundary between what he lives and what he invents, and who distrusts the person narrating the events of his own life.

The piece follows an actor whose boundaries between fiction and reality begin to blur. From that moment on, he distrusts whoever writes the events of his existence, and the play invites us to consider what kind of character we occupy within that story.

The production, by Compañía Criolla, premiered at the Teatro del Pueblo in Buenos Aires to notable reception from both critics and audiences. Direction and dramaturgy are by Emiliano Dionisi, and Roberto Peloni performs on stage.

The creative team is completed by Micaela Sleigh on set design, Agnese Lozupone on lighting and Martin Rodríguez on sound design, with Juan José Barocelli as assistant director and Sebastián Ezcurra as artistic producer. The show takes place at the Teatro Infanta Isabel, on calle del Barquillo, whose programme focuses on theatrical performing arts.
