"Guillermo Calderón is an authentic genius of the theater . . . you can't say you've heard or seen any of it before, which may make you want to hear and see it again."The New Yorker
"Neva's neobrutalist punch demonstrates . . . the enduring power of art."Time Out New York
"Brilliant and provocative."TheatreMania
"A lovely, disturbing drama . . . Calderón's drama is Chekhovian in the best sense."The Village Voice
This politically charged, haunting yet humorous meditation on theater and the revolutionary impulse tells the story of three actors, including Anton Chekhov's widow, who gather to rehearse scenes from The Cherry Orchard as Russia faces an impending revolution. A savage examination of the relationship between theater and historical context, Neva is the author's first play, which he directed for its English language premiere at the Public Theater in New York City.
Guillermo Calderon is Chile's foremost contemporary theater artist. His plays include Diciembre (December), Clase (Class), Villa, Discurso (Speech), Quake, and Escuela (School), and his productions have toured extensively through South America and Europe. His co-written screenplay Violeta won the World Cinema Jury Prize for Drama at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival, and other awards include Best Play of the Year (Art Critics Circle of Chile), three Chilean Altazor Awards for Best Playwright and Best Director, and the 2010 Bank of Scotland Angel Award (Edinburgh Fringe Festival).

Society is fuelled by anger; dissatisfaction shapes Twitter feeds, online petitions and protest marches. But is that enough to bring about change?Alejandra and Marcela are female anarchists, nervously planning to plant bombs in the middle of the night. They don't want violence. They just want to be heard. Prison's not much of a threat when most of your friends are inside.Then they meet José Miguel. He is from a different generation, a time when revolution was ripe and activism alive, and he's committed to change by any means possible. B explores what revolution and violence mean to two different generations. As they talk. the women's naivety is exposed, and "Calderón manages successfully to convey the self-aggrandising absurdity that often lies behind terrorist acts." (The Guardian). B is written by Chilean playwright Guillermo Calderon and was developed as part of the Royal Court Theatre's international programme. - E-bokPDF, Tyska, 2021

Drei Kontinente, sieben Länder, neun aktuelle Stücke: Zum spanischsprachigen Kulturraum gehören lebendige Theaterlandschaften, die herausragende Dramatiker*innen und brillante Theatertexte hervorgebracht haben. Die in diesem Band versammelten zeitgenössischen Autor*innen eint ihr scharfer, sezierender Blick auf die Gegenwart und ihre Lust an bildstarker und poetischer Sprache. Mit subtiler Ironie und bitterbösem Humor fassen sie verstörende Wirklichkeiten in Worte.Die Palette behandelter Themen reicht von Terror (Fabio Rubiano Orjuela), eskalierender Gewalt von Drogenkartellen (Itzel Lara) bis hin zu internationalen Friedenseinsätzen (Santiago Sanguinetti). Anhand dieser konkreten Kontexte wird die zerstörerische Logik zwischenmenschlicher Gewalt hinterfragt, werden universelle Fragen von Macht und persönlichen Handlungsspielräumen untersucht. Was ist Zivilisation, wo beginnt Barbarei (Sergio Blanco)? Wie schafft man es, sich im Meer aus Katastrophen nicht zu verlieren (Lola Blasco)? Welche Rolle spielt die Kunst dabei (Guillermo Calderón)?In Geschichte und Gegenwart wird nach Utopietrümmern gesucht, aus denen sich noch Zukunft bauen lässt (Rogelio Orizondo); neue Formen von Gemeinschaft werden skizziert, die menschliche Hierarchien überwinden können (Manuela Infante). Doch der Blick kann sich auch radikal nach innen richten, auf die eigene Psyche und Körperlichkeit (Marie Alvarez) – Ausgangspunkte möglicher Heilungsprozesse, die sich auf die gesamte Gesellschaft ausweiten können.Einige der ausgewählten Stücke waren bereits als spanischsprachige Gastspiele bei internationalen Festivals wie ¡Adelante! in Heidelberg, den Wiener Festwochen oder dem Berliner Theatertreffen zu sehen. Der vorliegende Band möchte sie in Übersetzungen von Miriam Denger, Carola Heinrich, Hedda Kage und Franziska Muche für deutschsprachige Leser*innen zugänglich machen.Mit den TheaterstückenMarie Alvarez: Entfesselt (Argentinien, Übersetzung: Miriam Denger)Sergio Blanco: Barbarei (Uruguay, Übersetzung: Franziska Muche und Hedda Kage)Lola Blasco: Meine Zeit, mein Tier (Spanien, Übersetzung: Franziska Muche)Guillermo Calderón: Dragón (Chile, Übersetzung: Franziska Muche)Manuela Infante: Gegen den Baum (Chile, Übersetzung: Franziska Muche und Carola Heinrich)Itzel Lara: Bis zur Unkenntlichkeit (Mexiko, Übersetzung: Franziska Muche)Rogelio Orizondo: Antigonón. Eine epische Heldenbrigade (Kuba, Übersetzung: Miriam Denger)Fabio Rubiano Orjuela: Mauern fliegen in die Luft (Kolumbien, Übersetzung: Miriam Denger)Santiago Sanguinetti: Die ewige Wiederkehr der Revolution in der Karibik (Uruguay, Übersetzung: Franziska Muche) - Häftad, Engelska, 2017
