V7: THE ART OF SILENCING

The project V7 is an original theatrical project based on a research on fear and freedom of expression. The play carry deeply inscribed with the tension and debate that censorship and self-censorship entail as ideas of control of freethinking and free expression. What are the limits? Why do we censor? What do we accept of the divergence?

The play shows two characters who meet in a single stage area where they represent an eternal and thoughtful dialogue. On the one hand, we find the Whore, as a symbol of the perversion and submission of women within the patriarchal system that imposes control laws, and the Censor, and that will encourage the Whore to tell her story, expose herself, feel… This eternal dialogue will allow us to reflect on issues such as censorship, fear, freedom of expression, violence or power, among others.

The scenic space and time are presented as two diffuse elements that constitute a universe where performativity and various texts coexist. Texts of own creation and also inspired and based on artistic works, especially cinematographic works, all of which are censored or revised, such as the documentary, Breathe, from which V7 is based.
