Letter from Roxana Piñeda, Festival Director

Magdalena Sin Fronteras 2017Three years can fly by. Three years can last forever. It all depends on the vicissitudes of life; the unforeseen and the things that well-dreamed became real.

After three years, the Magdalena Sin Fronteras is back with more questions than answers, with more doubts than certainties, but with the conviction that work and affection can suffocate all wounds and protect us from bitterness. That's the only reason I work so hard to keep cultivating this gathering space, to see again the faces that resist and leave a path of light, to share each experience with the illusion that others can start to design theirs.

Within the complex economic and social situation of Cuba, we will have to be careful with the size of the 2017 edition and seize every generous gesture of the Maestras that always accompany us. We can't offer you luxuries, but we can offer a very neat organization and a program that respects and worships the knowledge of all the women who will join us because they believe in the usefulness of this sharing of affections and knowledge.

From the 10th to the 20th of January 2017 we will once again flood our city with female theater, voices, and bodies. Under the topic: “Lives: Group, Theater, Reality” the gathering wants to recognize the resistance, to know how so many groups have resisted the ravages of all fires and still create art and memory.

The spaces for discussion will follow the general topic of each artist’s particular story, from a vision that starts from the individual and settles down in the collective imagination.

Workshops will focus on the topic: Weaving, or the act of composing. This topic was born from my appreciation of many works to which it would be of great importance to be able to share that very important part of the trade. To do and to think are two poles that I would like to illuminate in this edition.

The general program is not yet finalized, but we can say already that we will have with us in Cuba: Jill Greenhalgh (United Kingdom, founder of the Magdalena Project), Julia Varley (Odin Teatret, Denmark), Geddy Aniksdal (Grenland Friteater, Norway), Patricia Ariza, Nora González and Alexandra Escobar (Teatro La Candelaria, Colombia), Cristina Castrillo and Bruna Gusberti (Teatro delle Radicci, Switzerland), Ana Correa (Grupo Yuyachkani, Peru), Verónica Fálconi (Contraelviento Teatro, Ecuador), Verónica Moraga (Domo Teatro, Chile), Daniele Santana (Grupo Contadores de Mentiras, Brasil), Mayté Guevara (Argentina), Silvia Kater (Silkateatro Andante, Mexico), among others.
