Clean/Espejos is the perfect production to launch our Courage Series at the Pavilion Theatre, especially following on the heels of our recent A Broad’s Way Festival events marking International Women’s Day. This is an original and brave exploration of the experiences of two very different women whose lives parallel in unexpected and intriguing ways. It is also theatrically adventurous and unique in its presentation and in its structure, brought to life by two extraordinary performers and a brilliant creative team. We look forward to continuing to curate productions in our Pavilion Theatre that explore topical and sometimes challenging social issues. We are also excited to bring you theatrical experiences that may involve languages or cultures that are not often seen on our stages, but whose presence is long overdue. Building bridges of understanding between disparate people by cultivating empathy is at the heart of great theatre. We’re so proud and humbled to be able to work with the team at Neworld Theatre. Neworld’s exhilarating, dynamic productions have been enjoyed by audiences across Canada and internationally, and it’s a pleasure to share their work with you. Enjoy! Espejos/Clean es la producción perfecta para lanzar nuestra Serie de la Valentía en el Pavilion Theatre, especialmente después de los eventos de nuestro Festival A Broad Way para conmemorar el Día Internacional de la Mujer. Esta es una valiente y original exploración de las experiencias de dos mujeres muy distintas, cuyas vidas se asemejan en formas inesperadas y enigmáticas. También es un montaje teatralmente intrépido en su presentación y estructura, creado por dos extraordinarias actrices y un equipo creativo brillante. Nos emociona seguir con la curaduría en nuestro Pavilion Theatre de producciones que exploran temas actuales y, a veces, problemas sociales retadores. También nos emociona traerles experiencias teatrales que involucran idiomas o culturas que no se ven representadas a menudo en nuestros escenarios, pero que deberían haber estado presentes hace mucho tiempo. La construcción de puentes de entendimiento entre personas diferentes a través de la empatía, es parte esencial del gran teatro. Nos sentimos orgullosxs y honradxs de poder colaborar con el equipo de Neworld Theatre. Las producciones emocionantes y dinámicas de Neworld han sido disfrutadas por públicos en todo Canadá y el mundo, y es un placer compartir su trabajo con ustedes.

PLAYWRIGHT’S NOTES MENSAJE DE LA DRAMATURGA Christine Quintana - Playwright | Dramaturga Translation isn’t simple. It’s interpretation. There’s what a sentence says, what it means, and how it feels. There are many points of departure and moments of transformation. And the truth: the translation will never truly replicate the original. The sentence was something – and now it’s something else. Paula and I, over years of emails and WhatsApp voice memos and GoogleDocs, have worked together to articulate the inner worlds of Adriana and Sarah and bring them to life in two languages. Paula, a consummate translator, is fluent in both. Whereas my intermediate Spanish gives me facility to understand what a sentence says, but not always what it means. It’s an exercise in trust. And then we face the inherent cultural inheritances of language – “I’m sorry,” the hallmark Canadian phrase which tumbles from Sarah’s lips dozens of times in the script, translates to “lo siento” – which as Alexandra pointed out in workshop, translates back to “I feel you. It moves me.” Something, into something else. Every interaction we have with one another is an act of translation. The herculean task of answering the question “how are you?” The subtext we interpret when someone answers “I’m fine.” The act of presenting ourselves to one another, and the ways in which we interpret and understand each other, is an immense act of trust. The trust to be understood, and to understand, knowing there will always be something lost in translation even if we’re speaking the same language, about the same things. What I mean when I say to you, “I’m glad you’re here” and “thank you for coming” is as much your interpretation as my intention. But I trust you. Confío en ti. Traducir no es sencillo. Es interpretar. Por un lado, está lo que dice la oración; por otro, lo que significa, y por el otro, cómo se siente. Hay muchos puntos de partida y momentos de transformación. Y la verdad: la traducción realmente jamás será una réplica del original. La oración era una cosa—y ahora es otra. Paula y yo, a lo largo de años de emails y notas de voz de WhatsApp y GoogleDocs, hemos trabajado juntas para articular los mundos internos de Adriana y Sarah, para traerlos a la vida en dos idiomas. Paula, una traductora consumada, domina los dos. Mientras que mi español intermedio me da la posibilidad de entender lo que la oración dice, pero no siempre lo que quiere decir. Es un ejercicio de confianza. Y, luego, nos enfrentamos a las herencias culturales inherentes a los idiomas. La traducción más directa de “perdón/I’m sorry”—LA frase canadiense por excelencia, que cae de los labios de Sarah decenas de veces en el guion—es “lo siento”, que, como nos los hizo notar Alexandra en un taller, si se traduce de regreso al español significa algo como “Me toca. Me conmueve”. Una cosa se convierte en otra. Cada interacción que tenemos lxs unxs con lxs otrxs es un acto de traducción. La labor titánica de contestar a la pregunta “¿cómo estás?”, el subtexto que interpretamos cuando alguien dice “estoy bien”, el acto de presentarnos a nosotrxs mismxs ante lxs demás; y las formas en que nos interpretamos y comprendemos lxs unxs a lxs otrxs, es un acto de confianza. La confianza de que seremos comprendidxs, de que comprenderemos, sabiendo que siempre algo se perderá en la traducción, aun cuando estamos hablando el mismo idioma y sobre las mismas cosas. Lo que quiero decir cuando digo, “me da gusto que estés aquí” y “gracias por venir”, depende de tu interpretación tanto como de mí intención. Pero confío en ti. I trust you.
A CONVERSATION WITH DIRECTORS |
CHELSEA HABERLIN
Chelsea: So, for these Directors’ notes, we thought we’d talk about why we decided to have two directors. Daniela: Well, an obvious reason is language. The bilingualism already required two people. C: Because you speak Spanish and English and I, alas, only speak English. D: But also the more that we got to know each other, it felt that, conceptually, it would also be a really good idea because this play needs two types of brains. C: There is nothing obvious about how to stage a play like this. It requires a diversity of skill sets. I am more classically trained. Text based work. D: And I was trained almost the opposite that the script is almost the last thing that arrives. That actually images and concepts come first. And that out of those images and concepts, you create the work. It’s a little backwards, but for this play, having those two skill sets work really well because there’s so much of both of those things that just having one brain to have to think about all that would be a lot. So, it turned out that our skills were complementary in being able to put those two things together. Because I find either plays are heavily rooted in text or highly conceptual. This play’s both. Therefore, both of us are needed. C: Well said. I think another part of it is that because of the surtitles and the sort of importance of design in the storytelling to literally understand what’s occurring, design is key. And so to have two sets of eyes watching actors and surtitles and design elements, I think is really helpful in a piece like this. D: As a director, often you’re having to check in with yourself and your own choices, but to be able to whisper next to you and be like, “Is this working? How is this reading for you?” And have a more collaborative process of arriving at decisions is extremely satisfying versus doing it on your own. C: I also wanted to say that we have made a point of not speaking definitively about what we think this play is about, which is one of the reasons to do the Directors’ notes about process and collaboration rather than what this play is about. It’s important to us that everyone have the opportunity to bring what they want to the question: What is this play about? It doesn’t actually really matter what it’s about for me. D: Yeah. In a way we didn’t want to influence your thoughts or perceptions about what this play is supposed to be. But leave it quite open ended because I think, hopefully, we’ve given you enough to draw your own conclusions. And as we’ve shared this piece with others, we’ve found that everybody seems to latch onto different aspects of how this play is speaking to them, which is the power of theater. That’s the whole point. How boring it would be to just take one thing out of a play that’s the same for everyone. C: We hope we’re giving you something to snack on. D: To gnaw on. C: More than snack. To gnaw on. D: Happy gnawing audience.
UNA CONVERSACIÓN CON LAS DIRECTORAS
& DANIELA ATIENCIA
Chelsea: Para esta nota de las directoras, se nos ocurrió que podíamos platicar sobre por qué decidimos tener dos directoras. Daniela: Bueno, una razón obvia es por el idioma. El uso de dos idiomas requería, por sí solo, a dos personas. C: Porque tú hablas español e inglés y yo, lástima, sólo hablo inglés. D: Pero, también, porque entre más nos conocíamos, más sentíamos que, a nivel conceptual, también sería una muy buena idea porque esta obra necesita dos tipos de cerebros diferentes. C: Montar una obra como esta no tiene nada de obvio. Requiere habilidades muy diversas. Yo tuve un entrenamiento más clásico. Trabajos basados en un texto dramático. D: Y a mí me entrenaron de forma casi opuesta, que el guion es lo último que llega. Que, de hecho, las imágenes y los conceptos van primero. Y, a partir de esas imágenes y conceptos, una crea la pieza. Para esta obra, tener ambos tipos de habilidad funcionó muy bien porque hay tanto de ambas cosas, que contar con sólo un cerebro para pensar en todo eso, hubiera sido demasiado. Así que, resultó que nuestras habilidades se complementan para lograr construir ambas cosas. Siento que las obras tienen siempre o mucho énfasis en el texto o son altamente conceptuales. Esta obra es ambas. Por lo tanto, las dos éramos necesarias. C: Bien dicho. Creo que otra razón es que, por los subtítulos y por la importancia del diseño para la narrativa y literalmente para comprender lo que está pasando, el diseño es crucial. Y, entonces, tener dos pares de ojos para observar a las actrices y los subtítulos y los elementos de diseño, creo que es muy útil en una pieza como esta. D: Como directora, a menudo tienes que consultarte a ti misma sobre tus propias decisiones, pero poder susurrarle a la persona que está a lado de ti “¿funciona esto? ¿cómo sientes que se lee esto?” Y tener una especie de proceso más colaborativo para tomar decisiones, es extremadamente satisfactorio si lo comparas con hacerlo todo tu sola. C: También quería decir que hemos decidido no hablar de forma definitiva sobre de lo que se trata la obra, que es una de las razonas por las que la Nota de las Directoras habla de procesos y de colaboración, en lugar de hablar sobre la temática de la obra. Nos es importante que todo el mundo tenga la oportunidad de traer lo que quiera a la pregunta: ¿de qué trata esta obra? Para mí, no es realmente importante de qué trata. D: Sí. En cierta forma no queríamos influenciar sus pensamientos ni sus percepciones sobre lo que esta obra debe o no ser. Sino que queremos dejarla abierta porque creo, espero, que les hemos dado suficiente material para sacar sus propias conclusiones. Y conforme hemos ido compartiendo esta pieza con otrxs, hemos descubierto que cada persona se siente atraída a diferentes aspectos de cómo la obra les habla, que finalmente es el poder del teatro. Ese es todo el punto. Qué aburrido sería llevarse una sola cosa de una obra que se siente igual para todo el mundo. C: Esperamos estarles dando suficiente material para saborear. D: Para masticar. C: Más que saborear. Masticar. D: Mastiquen a gusto, público.
