- Mexican Theather: Fireflies Love It’s no easy write about ‘El amor de las luciérnagas’ or ‘Fireflies love’, even more in a foreign language, but it’s a challenge for me and I would really want to share something about this story with you. ‘Fireflies’ is a play about Maria, a tales writer who jaded of her life, writes down in a magic writting machine the story about another her who will be in charged of her own life. Confusing, right? Well, that’s just the beginning. Next day, Maria realise that the another her has stolen her life. So, with the help of her bestfried, Lola, the real Maria start looking for recover her life. In the quest, Maria learns that the false Maria, or Nicole Kidman like Maria and Lola decided to call false Maria to avoid more confusions, it’s a better version of herself. Just a black background lighted with less than a hundred bulbs, 3 actresses playing Maria carrying 3 suitcases, are enough to create one space as simple as beautiful. If you have the opportunity to watch this story, don’t hesitate. In ‘Fireflies love’ you may learn that sometimes you have to go so far away and lost everything to found yourself.
September 8, 201510 - Mentiras The Musical Review During 80 & 90’s decades in Mexico, and big part of Latin America, people heard the music that media impose, with tv shows as ‘Siempre en domingo’, something like ‘Always on sunday’. Thinking in those days, with tv and radio as almighty media, without computers, smartphones or internet given the possibility to know another kind of performancers or musicians, millions of people grew up liking that music. About 6 years ago, mexican theater open a musical called ‘Mentiras El Musical’ or ‘Lies The Musical’, recovering that songs and creating a story related to 80’s decade. ‘Mentiras’ it’s about 4 women in the funeral of 1 man who cheated them with each others, and according to the will, one of them killed him. The musical has been a really success in Mexico, maybe comparable with ‘Mamma Mia’ in USA. Some critics attribute that phenomena to nostagia, because audience remember those times when you heard that music over and over again. Something fun, it’s that all those song sings about cheating, heartbroken and being an independent and strong woman, and these lyrics fits perfect in a cheated women story.
