About theatre,
about the actor, in truth, about life.
Through the emotions and the images Cristina Castrillo returns to the
roots.
Giornale del Popolo/ Switzerland
The interrogative
which stays at the base of Umbral is one of those fundamental capable
to put in crisis anyone who carry out an artistic activity.
Corriere del Ticino / Switzerland
Cristina
Castrillo persuades and fascinates through that way, besides a demonstration
of skill on personal and anthological bases, which wants to be the sweet
awakening of a drowsy theatrical memor
Azione / Switzerland
Umbral is
a performance, an history book, a lyric manual, finally a veil lifted
on the way and above all on the theatrical method of Cristina Castrillo.
La Regione / Switzerland
Apparently
the exercise seems to be an indiscretion that could only interest the
actors, the people of theatre. Nevertheless, little by little, every step
acquires a sense to those who are the most extraneous to the theatrical
world.
Cristina is saying through actions, imagines that the personal memory,
that is to say, the experiences of everyone may be a creative method,
they could be theatre and therefore a way to connect with the public.
La Razòn / Bolivia
The same
body reflects it : there’s nothing of superfluous in this woman.
Her thiness only means that she doesn’t bring with her any unnecessary
luggage in her trip for the life ; only muscles that allow her to transmit
an immense strength and long bones which always hold her up, and above
all that a visage that goes from an inconsolable sadness to the complicity
and the redeemer humour of the clown
El Comercio / Perù
“Umbral”,
a space without Time that reveals itself as a masterly class.
El Ciudadano/ Argentina
“Travel
to the sounds of the soul and bet to a discourse without shrieking, impeccable
choreography of a body that involves itself to do homage to the daily
sacrifice of the actor.
Escenario/Argentina
The performance
is a dramatic-poetical exercise which reaches an expressive excellency
unusual and reveals Castrillo as a superlative actress and creator.
Clarín / Argentina
“But
further on of the truth of the text , or of the notes above she weaves
her performance, there is the bruising act of her beauty scenical work.”
El Mundo/ Venezuela
“ Castrillo
is an amazing performer, moving with extraordinary subtlety and grace,
mercurial. Seemingly ageless, so that the cavernous space becomes intimate
and warm”.
The Dominion / New Zealand
