The muertos1 is a part whose direction and dramaturgy was in charge of
Beatriz Catani and Mariano Pessoti. Premiered at the Hebbel Am Ufer Berlin, Germany
(under the Buenos Aires-Berlin cycle, with the production of Goethe Institute in Buenos Aires
). It was subsequently presented in Buenos Aires in the dressing room of the Muses
.
The comments regarding the release could be considered a "color
data", the statement of a particular material to the setting itself. Without
But we believe that in this case the fact of the premiere in the context of a foreign language
production works as a condition for determining this
setting up what it is.
Overall, the translation carries an undeniable functionality, and
is clear what is its use in a field of Germanic speakers but what is
sense to translate into German for speakers of English in Buenos Aires? The
translation, of course, is what creates distance. For several reasons, first,
is "unnecessary" (which does not imply that becomes a non-significant), the perceived target
repeated that word for another that is not them, and on the other side
, which builds this translation is the delay, is the time it stops, the required features
the wait.
On the other hand, the translation and its carrier, the translator, are the
interweave the two places that the work builds. We
explain, the dead is based on two parties, two spaces, which are perceived
parallel but do not overlap: first
television and video and two young men sitting in separate chairs in close proximity;
across a space that could very well refer to a stage, with these quite simple, almost
improvised, not a living but the scenery of a living ... with someone who
reveals his own name (is his name ?, do we tell the truth? "Yeah, we corroborate

with the program, agrees with what he said) and history tells us that tries to reconstruct
a work in which he acted twenty years ago, "The Dead" by James Joyce.
To some extent there seems no link between the two spaces, except in terms of nomenclature
(even in thematic terms, only a name, Joyce
text does not seem to refer to "dead" in literal terms, and the dead which
speak on the other side not to be understood metaphorically but literally) without
however, the translator connects the two spaces. Why? Because it moves, runs
both spaces and translates into another language reveals what he says in English. Until
stop.
Those responsible for making claim that there is a research and
back. When investigating the certainties are put in parentheses, and establishing links
orders are most dissimilar. Is there any similarity between the death and drama
? A cemetery and create a stage theatrics? Is it possible
performance of a play without actors? Can theatricality of
absent bodies? The attempt to present those bodies. An Absent
Theater Corps.
These questions are in response the start that we offer. The reports
the designer and the gravedigger is a sample key crossings
unthinkable (but not unthinkable) between both tasks. The young man explained,
shows the cemetery as a staging and theatricality reveals that
looms in the field of death rituals.
Alfredo Martin, the actor, trying to be him in the past, and others, the characters shared
work twenty years ago he represented. This is another focal point, the
of representation how death is represented, how is
represented in the theater, who is one who can represent what can
represented.
All the time there is something in the place of another, or otherwise,
cemetery at the site of the scenery, and most importantly, the media, insists it's
steadily TV is what we see, not the cemetery, is the scenery
of living, not living, the actor, not the character and the translator, which does nothing to explain the mediation
.
Perhaps, the dead, investigating the death found other issues that had been proposed
not found other recesses, said other places where
continue looking.
Finally, after all, for it is investigated to find we do not expect to find
