Declan Donnellan

La Compañía Nacional de Teatro (CNT) del Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes y Literatura (Inbal), y la Compañía Nacional de Teatro Clásico de España (CNTE), como parte de las actividades conmemorativas por los 90 años del Palacio de Bellas Artes, se presentarán en mayo en dicho recinto con seis funciones –tres por cada Compañía– de dos obras representativas del teatro clásico del Siglo de Oro en español.

His first publication went viral (once again, in a way) when Mr Jeremy Strong of Succession fame featured it in his GQ interview about his essentials, saying he swears by it. Declan Donnellan succeeds at describing the indescribable, putting the ephemeral art of acting on paper in another gem of a book. The Actor and the Space admits it’s not trying to be a manual of any kind, specifying that, ultimately, every single choice is personal and down to the individual - but the result becomes a light in the dark. Yes, it’s a collection of invaluable suggestions and advice on how to approach a dramatic text to attain the best results, but, curiously, it swiftly turns into an celebration of the human experience.

Ópera, música, danza, teatro, danza folclórica, literatura y otras expresiones, a cargo de las coordinaciones y grupos artísticas del Inbal, confluirán en 2024 para celebrar el 90 Aniversario del Palacio de Bellas Artes, el máximo recinto de la cultura en México.
