Róbinson Díaz stars in the play Mucho animal, at the Teatro Libre – Art and Theater – Culture

The idea is to make you laugh a lot. And that is ‘lots of animals’. Róbinson Díaz and Alberto Barrero, ‘Pucheros’, take the stage at the Teatro Libre de Chapinero to count various amatory forms of animals.

“As humans, we are not going to be able to discover many of these forms of love and we are actors, not scientists, so in our scene, which is theater, we want people to have fun discovering other ways,” he says. Robinson Diaz.

He says that his thesis was about the creation and construction of the character through the animals “and it stayed with me for a long time. One day I told Pavel Nowicki (Polish, theater and television director) and he told me to do something.

Pucheros’ began an investigation that lasted five or six months, and Mucho animal came out, with its absurdity and its fantasy”, he continues.

For Díaz, it was also very important to analyze the movements of the animals and to that he paid special attention. “We have evolution,” he adds, but the species bring their rituals, forms of subsistence that have traveled through history.

And he goes to shows like The Lion King, which he saw in Spain, with a great scenic load, with actors representing different species and giving each one its closest expression from the human.

For ‘Much anima’ they analyzed several behaviors. “There are things that leave one terrified. A bow tie puts those who want to conquer it to make a kind of nest to court it. They all have to turn around and in the end she decides which one she gets.”

And it tells how the male firefly attracts the female with its light, but also with a gift, a kind of bag of nutrients. The squid, which they also talk about in the play, have various styles.

“The goal is to give people ideas to laugh at. This is not scientific, nor political, but something that occurred to us, a disparate and in art everything is nonsense, because the rest is reality, very strong and very overwhelming. We think that fantasy continues to be one of the most beautiful terrains for everyone,” he says.
