DIEGO LA HOZ: "The theater is generous"

And boy is generous with Diego theater la Hoz , voted a Best Director of 2010 for the work species, text authoring and the group Sara Joffré Clearance. This dramatic piece, involving Omar Del Aguila, Betzabeth Misme, Jhosep Palomino and Jonathan Oliver, was also awarded as the Best Play of the year, after the poll closed. "I feel it is a kind of recognition my work ", reflects the director. "It's a great responsibility, to assume a posture of science and consequence."

"People need a reference, and I think for many we are," reflects director Clearance. "I feel it also as respectful treatment towards me, I feel I have idealized, I find it very curious." Diego says he feels capable of directing the great productions at theaters currently fashionable (and boy is ready!), But if it does not is due primarily to their unrelenting desire not to betray their position or their principles . "I assure that 90% of actors are only temporary theater groups, waiting to be called the Isil to go running, I do not work that way, " accurate.

theater group

Diego claims not identify with the commercial theater and that is why, today works in the "underground." "My group (space) has a certain posture, with a defined ideology," said . "The big problem is that Peruvians do not have capacity for reflection and self-criticism about what we do, that is why we do not take positions" . He left a while ago space Ovalo Balta Barranco for ideological reasons, in order to find a theater with an identity "on the other side." "Through Groupality seek to be better people," reflects . "We share the same space, we laughed together, cried together, live together. It is very important doubt, if we hesitate, we die. " Diego says

disagree with the term of Independent Theatre. "does exist in Argentina" he says. "As a result of a political struggle for several years, in which people were not in accordance with the commercial theater, and achieved get subsidies for alternative theater groups, in Peru, we have no financial support. "

claims have never regretted not having directed some assembly, as it believes that all means a valuable learning experience. "Suddenly I may not have liked the whole final product by directing some work, but I do not regret having taken the stage any" he says with conviction. "It is important to do everything I've done, and so I find my own way, playing or working frivolous issues like what people do nothing wrong, however, are rewarding experiences," says .

polls "Best of the Year"

on existing surveys on "Best Theatre" which appeared each year to the Dean of the National Press Diego has a particular viewpoint. "I figured in those annual accounts in 2003 and 2004, with two works: animal most tender, which premiered at the Mocha Graña and The triptych delight at the Casa Amarilla de Barranco, of course, that was before the appearance of La Plaza Isil. " And in the last years, the director seems to be no free space for the" researchers "responsible for conducting surveys and balances daily, despite having released successful and effective valuable pieces, such as bed Four stories or Demons in the skin, to cite two examples. For Diego, it is unthinkable that premiered works in alternative spaces now appear in the pages of El Comercio, and that apparently does not care. "It's very interesting to see how changing relationship between the media and the performing arts through history," says the director with 12 years of uninterrupted work, who prefers to opt for alternative or roaming areas, believing that Lima's most important rooms not approve his theatrical projects. Diego

also feel very happy for the victory in the poll Betzabeth Misme as best supporting actress for species . "Betzy is a very talented girl, out of the Open Space workshops and is in the midst of an interesting process," stresses . At the moment (says Diego) she is doomed to the creation of a space within her community called Scenic. But this more later, when the Office Critical the interview. "On the other hand, continues Diego, " I note the support we provide and Pold Caparó Gastello Paco, teachers and friends of the Theatre Club of Lima, as always recommend students to continue her acting training in the open space. "

Projects Projects

Diego for next year, in addition to publishing his works and memories include the organization by its group III Theatertreffen in Barranco, where plans call for a critical group of Argentine youth AINCRIT researchers (Argentina Association of Theatre Research and Criticism). "Promoting a round table with them would be very interesting for our theater movement" says Diego, who met this association in one trip and it seemed an excellent idea that these critics we share their experiences and knowledge about the so-called theater the periphery in Argentina. And the exclusive

tells us that in the middle of next year, plans to pay a fitting tribute to Sara Joffre, our tireless promoter and theater critic and also one of the most respected playwrights in the country. "I was asked the direction of a work of Sara, written almost 40 years, called Story about Foam Circle, a beautiful love story, and I gladly accepted. " Diego not only be responsible for release in the auditorium the coffee in San Isidro, but also plans to make a par, a photographic exhibition of Sara, who hopes to get the importance that our author deserves. Diego

leaves us with a question: "The theater is generous and gives back all our effort and sacrifice sooner or later." And you are absolutely right Clearance director, because every artist who gives himself to his passion, reap fruit in the future. Proof of this is Diego La Hoz, an undeniable and valuable reference for our alternative theater. Sergio Velarde
