Adaptation, Transformation and Relevance of Early Modern Theater/ 2024 congress.

By Natalia Soracipa

On September 11th, Lorena Rojas and I headed to Los Angeles to take part in the annual conference organized by AITENSO and the AHCT in the company of La Escena. In addition to having an opportunity to break the routine of remote meetings and meet through the screen, this was an experience in which we connected with countless academics, researchers, and artists who continue to keep the Golden Age alive. Every day, we listened to the ideas of educators who strive to transmit ancient stories to young people, and we closed with a visit to the Nimoy Theater to witness different theater productions. In addition, we were also able to give a presentation about our work with Siglo Latinx Lorena's was titled  "Del verso al reggaetón en La traición de la amistad de Ana Zambrana" and mine "La poética del espacio: un encuentro entre la imagen y la luz en la creación artística de Israel Franco-Muller." This was an excellent opportunity to connect with others and open our horizons towards the theatrical and academic fields.
