Project

The work to be carried during in the stay at the Faber residence is the writing of the play La broma final. He is trying to make some questions about the limits of humor and censorship. He is interested in writing a comedy uncomfortable. He would like taking people in the theatre to apparently funny situations that should not be funny. When president Trump was elected, he saw some humorists in USA or in our country, reproducing their racists or sexists jokes because they were parodying him. But, when the do that, what are we laughing at, at Trump’s joke or at the parody? Maybe that parody was necessary to enjoy again our immoral feelings and thinkings, even if we think we don’t have them.
