Más allá del Sol

by Rocha, Glafira

Description

Until not long ago there were forbidden topics in the theater for children and young audiences. Fantasies left a mantle of illusion about real life, children and adults lacked scenarios to reflect with freshness, risk and courage, about a world that, inevitably, always ends up overwhelming the child's gaze with its inevitable rawness. Beyond the sun endorses, fortunately, the new paths that the theater for children has taken in our days. If education is a way of teaching a human being to think for himself, this theater more than fulfills a vocation that evidences the problematic relations between real life and the perspective of children. It fulfills an essential function: it creates a space of thought and humor to filter the inevitable daily violence. Should children not think the inexorable? We don't even dare to think about it, but it happens: children die too. In this ghost story, Glafira Rocha's heroes return or, better said, simply don't leave because they are more alive than some "living" ones. The beloved Citrino and Chuy Piscuy teach us to live without fear, but above all to value the counterpoint of death: life.
