THEATRE IN THE SCHOOL
Esteban Reina Soto, Bryan Rocha.
In the 2015 tons of new things have been made in the school, from the reconstruction of the High School Branch until the creation and foundation of the Schools theatre, a place for the students to express their art and love for the Acting and scenic art. Definitely the theatre was received with admiration amongst the students who could observe the first role play presented on it, Pena de Vida, Condenada Creadora. A Three-acts divided role play presented on April 2015, it was created, written and acted by the Tenth graders.
This role play was successfully presented to almost 50 students from the grades Third until Eleventh, it was presented in a single day, with four presentations from 9:00 am until 11:00 am, though not only students were the spectators of this presentation but also the directives of the school, Mr. Castillo, Mrs Mayab, Mrs. Vega, and finally but no less important Mrs. Dehaquiz, who arrived to Colombia in order of accomplishing her functions and also for observing a piece of innovation and art in the school.
The tickets for entering to the role play had a Price of a thousand Pesos, and about seventy thousand pesos were obtained ($70.000), perhaps this money will not be wasted, it will be used for helping a Indigenous tribe in Colombia, and in honour of their language the school´s theatre was named Exána Carima, or “Creative Colombia”.
The role play was created in base of Becquer´s text “Introducción Sinfónica”. Pena de Vida, Condenada Creadora showed the story of a damned writer who lost her baby, and at her elder age, when she tried to write literature, due to her incapability or lack of inspiration, she had begged the inspiration´s muse to arrive for helping her. Though at the end she died, she could achieve the freedom of her rage and desperation.
Finally we can affirm that the school is in seek of advancing and achieving better things for it´s members, right this year were the arts, maybe in the future the change could be attained by any other student or teacher.
