Lights, music, clothing suited to the times of today and a lot of movement are the key stage of the proposed Theater Alquibla its twenty-fifth anniversary.
The play, directed by the playwright Antonio Saura, has surprised "positively" to the public of Alcantara have seen a modern version of the work.
The director skillfully demonstrates that the classic texts are highly topical today, and even more so, the hypocrisy of that is showing the character of Tartuffe.
The play is produced by the company Murcia in cooperation with the International Festival of Theatre and Dance in San Javier, Murcia, which this year celebrates its fortieth anniversary.
The play, despite his admirable sense of humor, does not hide a frontal attack on the manipulation of power, this time by way of religion.
At the time was a wake-up call about the dangers that surrounded the French absolute monarchy.
The path of the devotee, the meapilismo, presented as shrewd as emphatic.
But there is the intelligence of the artist: he spoke to the people of his time, but also for situations that are repeated and repeated throughout history.
Instead of shouting fascist 'For the Empire to God', Tartuffe seems to say 'By God, to power and money. "
Therefore, in the tone of comedy, its end can not be more pessimistic.
It's a happy ending, yes, but the solution comes from above, from a new deus ex machina invisible, intangible and conventional.
