My dreamed job

I`d like to have a job in which I can do a lot of research about staging with a consolidated team of fellows. I imagine having the resources to create plays based on research in specific places and its culture around the world. I would like it to be here in Chile at first, because it is my home country and the one that I know the most (I`m emotionally involved!) , and also because I think it has a lot of interesting aspects to venture.

Anyway, my idea of the dreamed job involves a work center with the spaces and the tools to create theatrical pieces with performers of different disciplines and cultures, even with people that has never been involved with theatre. So, one part of the work with be indoor in the work center, where we would prepare the premises for the research and build all that would be necessary for the final staging of the research, and the other part of the work would be outdoor (this part really excites me, because I`m a big fan of travelling!), presenting the plays in tours in different countries and continents, and collecting imaginary for the next plays.

I would really like this job to become real, because I think it can contribute to bring theater closer to the people, and that would be beautiful! There is a reason why theatre is a practice that has existed and survived since ancient times. I think it`s because it is a ritual that connects human souls :).

My latest beautiful dream

I will never forget the beautiful dream that I had a couple of weeks ago. It began with some dear friends and me walking in a beach at the sunrise. The landscape was amazing, without human intervention,  we where surrounded by nature, next to the immense Pacific Ocean and the cliffs of the central littoral full of vegetation.  We where walking serenely and with rhythm, like a tribe or a flock of birds, each one of us with our space but all ensambled. We where very quiet so we could hear the Ocean, the wind blowing, the birds doing there things in the trees and every thing that was surrounding us. It was like if we didn`t have to talk to communicate! We had like collective telepathy.

At some point of the walk, all the women of the group created a female flock and entered into a garden that suddenly appeared. It was full of fragrant and colorful flowers and peacocks, and I bend to collect some of the feathers of the peacocks that were lying in the ground. They were incredibly big and had a metallic shimmer that made me think that I had found a magic object, and at the end of the dream I was like hypnotized.
