Biografías escénicas: mi vida después de Lola Arias
2011
This article proposes a new approach to documentary theatre of the 21st century
through the study of Vivi Tellas’s Biodramas project and a close analysis of the play Mi vida
despues by Lola Arias. While these works make use of archives—such as videos, testimonies,
newspaper articles, and film—as the primary sources in the transmission of knowledge, this
article aims to explore the liminality involved in the selection of archives and how their subsequent
stagings will be received and interpreted. This new focus on documentary theatre not
only expands the notions previously promulgated by Piscator and Weiss, but also represents
the ambiguous and arbitrary role that archives play in today’s society. (PH, article in Spanish)
