Malandro Theater - Omar Porras

This book opens the doors to the world of theater from the perspective of the renowned Colombian actor and director Omar Porras, whose career has developed primarily in Switzerland. Considered one of the most important living dramatic creators, by virtue of his particular interpretation of the great classics, his work emphasizes movement, the importance of gesture and the sublimation of representation, that is, the essence of theater. This book, its striking and beautiful photographs, its design and format, conveys the surprising universe of Omar Porras and his Teatro Malandro, a Geneva company founded by him. Here 12 of his most notable productions are staged, accompanied by texts by nine renowned European and Colombian authors.
