Lleca Teatro is a theatre group from Nicaragua that is composed of, and makes theatre with, people from communities trapped in cycles of violence. For this reason, violence in its multiple forms as well as its undoing and contestation are the main issues that inform their work. Over the years of Lleca Teatro have worked with the subject of imprisonment in Nicaragua, where they developed a distinctly corporeal theatre methodology, drawing on both the collective and individual body as a creative source of imag(inari)es, text(ure)s and sensory experiences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Following their exile from Nicaragua amid the pandemic restrictions in the Netherlands, they began rebuilding and internationalizing their community arts collective with other Nicaraguan refugees and solidarity artists, as such they created Farewell Macondo, building on this modality of largely non-verbal storytelling. During this accompanying workshop, participants will learn about Lleca Teatro’s creative methods whilst deploying their own body and biography to construct images and engage sensory experiences.

Lleca Teatro is a theatre group from Nicaragua that are composed of, and make theatre with, people from communities \"trapped\" in unconventional spaces riddled by violence. For this reason, violence in its multiple forms as well as its undoing\/contestation are the main issues that inform their work. Over the years of their work through and on imprisonment, they have developed a distinctly corporeal theatrical methodology that draws on the body as a creative source of imag(inari)es, text(ure)s and sensory experiences\/experimentation. The collective had to flee Nicaragua following the violent repression of massive anti-government protests. Amid the pandemic restrictions in the Netherlands, Lleca Teatro began rebuilding and internationalizing their community arts collective. This collective is now composed of Nicaraguan refugees scattered across the Netherlands, as well as solidary artists and young students.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n","post_title":"Lleca Teatro","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"lleca-teatro","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-11-13 16:38:11","post_modified_gmt":"2024-11-13 15:38:11","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/makers\/lleca-teatro\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"maker","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"edition":15,"makers_involved":[2716],"also_interesting":[224]},"programmes":{"2023033020230330":{"13:30:0017:00:00":[{"id":491,"title":"Compilation 5: Nacer\/Birth & Violence, Exile & Physical Theatre","type":"productions","production_count":2,"start_date":"20230330","date":[{"day_name":"Thu","day":"30","month":"March","month_abbrev":"Mar","year":"2023","timestamp":"2023-03-30"}],"time":"13:30 - 17:00"}]}},"days":["20230330"],"makers":{"2716":"Lleca Teatro"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/productions\/221","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/productions"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/production"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/productions\/221\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1326,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/productions\/221\/revisions\/1326"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1360"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=221"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic?post=221"},{"taxonomy":"edition","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/editions?post=221"},{"taxonomy":"festival_production_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icafrotterdam.com\/festival\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/festival_production_types?post=221"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
