The Municipal
Theater of Caracas will develop a varied artistic and
cultural program during the months of June and July, said its director, Carla
Palomino, who detailed the activities planned for the coming weeks
during an interview with the program Contrastes, broadcast by Venezolana de Televisión (VTV).
The
agenda will begin on June 12 with a tribute concert to the outstanding Venezuelan
conductor Rodolfo Saglimbeni, one year after his death.
Later, from June 19 to 21, the public will be able
to enjoy the play Camille and Milord, directed by Miguel Issa.
In addition,
on June 26 and 27, the Bolivarian
National Armed Forces Orchestra will be presented together with members of El Sistema, who will offer a
repertoire dedicated to Latin-Caribbean music.
The
program will continue in July with the staging of Gallegos:
Selvas, Plains and Words, from the 10th to the 12th of that month, a proposal
inspired by the work of the Venezuelan writer Rómulo Gallegos. On July 15, there will
also be a graduation ceremony from the César Rengifo School.
Palomino
said that between July 20 and 26, special activities will be held on the
occasion of the celebration of the founding of Caracas, in addition to an agenda
dedicated to Children's Week, aimed at promoting the participation of
new generations in the cultural life of the city.
In the
same way, he announced that important musical shows are
planned for the months of October and November, including the opera Tosca, by Giacomo Puccini,
as well as a large format production inspired by the musicals presented on Broadway.
The
director also stressed that one of the main objectives of the
Municipal Theater is to ensure the conservation of its spaces and to strengthen the
formation of new audiences by working together with
educational and cultural institutions, including students from the National
Experimental University of the Arts (UNEARTE).
“We have a very friendly audience with theater and we continue working to educate and promote the care of our facilities,” said Palomino, who reiterated his commitment to maintaining the Municipal Theater as one of the country's main cultural venues.
