Rehearsal the perils of obedience - Itziar Barrio, July 2014, Abrons Art Center, New York

Resumen

A group of actors is rehearsing a scene led by a director. All follow a script of exercises, where physical movements are combined with interviews, improvisations, and the reading of texts. Different contexts interlay in a large chain of events. Over the course of four days, the actors work until exhaustion, searching for nuances of the performing act, which reverberate in their own lives. For the final two days, the rehearsal opens to an audience. The entire process is recorded by a set of cameras, under the guidance of the artist.
