Last May we had in Dublin the international “Gay Theatre Festival”, wich Oscar Wilde was kind of "flag". I went to watch a play with my housemates, a French girl and a Spanish girl. We were expecting to see something in English, but when I caught the program I read “Silenciados” (Physical Theatre) in Spanish. Silenciados? They don’t speak, because is physical interpretation… My friends burst in laughter. For few minutes we were frustrated. But, we had bought our tickets… We did not have choice. But, I must say that was a great experience, because this play used to a homosexual topic to make us think about discrimination, hypocrisy and difference in our life.
First, five handsome men are lying down on the stage covered for a big transparent plastic. The soundtrack begins very loud with Muse song “Butterflies and Hurricanes”. They left the plastic as if they were born at that moment. We could feel their excitation. This feeling was kept inside us during all the play. It is energy, sexual and real.
There were on the stage five characters: "a prisoner 1985 in Auschwitz, caught in a Pink Triangle; Octavio Atuna is a gay activist killed in a small town in 2004; Jesus Prieto is a gay Christian who is struggling with his religious and sexual identity; Paulina is a Guatemalan transsexual and the last one is Mateo Rodriguez, a victim of bullying".
Each one has his time in this play. And sometimes one actor use the own stage to change his clothes, you can see his back part naked. I think is an intentional way to make us realize how our body is natural , it is not something forbidden.
Silenciados is directed by Gustavo Del Río (director of Sudhum Teatro in Madrid) who also performs in a piece devised by the ensemble. The others actors are Pedro Martín, Juan Caballero, Nicolás Gaude, Rubén, Mascato and Samuel Valverde.
