Shakespeare theater

About

The Shakespeare Theater was conceived by Patricio Orozco and for the first time constructed in February 2013, for the III Shakespeare Festival in Buenos Aires opening.

The Shakespeare Theater is a mobile construction that evokes an Elizabethan theatre and has as its main objective to bring the spectator to a new theater experience. The Theater invites spectators to take part on the plays the same way they did in London in the 1600, at the theater where Shakespeare exposed his texts.

The encircling structure of the theater, plus the possibility of the audience at the field of being standing and being able to move to the place they find most attractive, make of this the experience of assisting to a representation, an unforgettable one. In this kind of spaces, the well known quote attributed to the English author “All the world’s a stage”, makes a lot of sense. Shakespeare thought his plays to be performed in these theaters, and that is why his texts are redefined when worked in this type of theatrical space.
