Starting in the 1960s in Spain, in the face of censorship and the overwhelming monopoly of institutional theater, playwrights of social realism and independent theater tried to envision youth theater as a space of subversion, refusing to give way to a desire to assimilate dissident aesthetics by Francoism. Pilar Enciso and Lauro Olmo, forerunners of this trend, founded the Teatro Popular Infantil in 1953, a company for which they wrote and directed five plays. This article offers an analysis of these works in the light of notions dear to the two playwrights: urgency, ethical transmission, and theatrical assembly. |
