Buenos Aires, March 4 (NA) – “Here We Can't Do It,” a play that presents the harsh reality of artists seeking roles in theatrical productions and trying to make a living from their craft, was presented at the Teatro Regia. Directed by Pepe Cibrán, the show exposes the untold story behind the work of actors. The performance, witnessed by the Argentine News Agency, depicts how a group of artists, along with their producer, Rodolfo, must endure countless auditions to break into the art world, where reputation weighs more than talent and effort. There, the actors delve into various personal issues faced by those who choose this profession; one of them always dreamed of being a dancer, but his mother was completely against his ideals. On the other hand, it portrays the figure of Verónica, a mainstream artist with health issues and a drug addiction who could never build the career she wanted, but rather the one the industry imposed on her. She was famous for singing in English and for being incomprehensible in what she said, but at the end of the play, she reveals that her true passion was always tango as a national symbol. Furthermore, the play reveals the innate prejudice in our country that “the best always comes from abroad” when there are thousands of talents waiting for their chance. IP Cooperative-style productions, untalented figures who have secured their positions, the futile effort of undergoing thousands of auditions for a role, and how Rodolfo chooses to pursue his dreams without being part of the commercial industry: all this and more is explored by Cibrán in the theater. Ultimately, behind “Here We Can't Do It” lie contracts, thousands of rehearsal hours, and artistic professionals waiting for an opportunity to prove they are capable of mounting a show and showcasing their knowledge.
