A-style

In Palacios Pilo´s and Candioti´s musicals, many aesthetic slopes come together: from Broadway´s traditional musical and the West End to an inevitable latinamerican touch, even locally which make its productions look alike the most traditional musicals, and at the same time, be differentiated. Their plays follow a language that brings up the musical self convention but at the same time they propose a different look, an audacity that breaks the molds and projects a creativity based on the authors national identity. Directors and producers of their stagings, both authors have created so much with resources aboundance as in extreme lack of the same. This adaptation to a way of working capacity has given result of diversity glances concerning the scenic (on the other side of Argentina) that, somehow, has been building a new poetic, a way of recreating the musical from its operistic greatness to an absolute dispossession. In them come together the text strength, the dramatic construction, and the music beauty, added to a lyric glance which dyes both melodramatic tone plays (“September, a musical to inspire love”, “While you drink your coffee”, “Jélous” ) and the epic and evocative ones (“I am, That Alfonsina, a Musical”, “Gallitrap, the fairy tale they didn´t tell us”), whitout forgetting tangles comedies that explores camp/kitsch aesthetic like “Bufa, life is to music”. If it were to be defined somehow, maybe we could speak about a creative freedom in which is based on the game, the extreme moments and large ballads until the choirs that fuse a scene with another in a sometimes classic and sometimes “sondheim” use of its narrative resources.
