Proceso de creación del personaje pancorvo un viaje por el siglo de oro y la comedia del arte

Abstract

This written work takes the form of a reflective logbook that documents the creative process of the graduation performance Folia. Fiesta de ahoritica, directed by Spanish actor and director Carlos García Ruiz, a specialist in the comedy genre. The working strategies used throughout the process included improvisation, body awareness, vocal work, and especially logical thinking on stage, all of which were fundamental to the development of the performance. The piece is based on the “pasos cómicos” (comic interludes) of the great Lope de Rueda and the theatrical conventions of Spain’s Golden Age. This project explores a fresh and daring way of approaching short comic plays through the actor’s body, using tools such as physical action and precise scenic rhythm, allowing the actor to break from traditional techniques and routines in order to reconnect with spontaneity, intuition, and meaning in performance. Key Words: Character creation, Commedia dell’arte, Physical theatre, Corporeal mime, Popping, Creative actor, scenic body construction, improvisation.
