In these times we live in, it is key to be positive and fill life with a lot of "Amor y Humor". With that combination, actors Lander Otaola and Ylenia Baglietto will take the stage of the Euskalduna Palace on February 12, 13 and 14 and April 2, 3 and 4 to try to make people enjoy and have fun.
"Amor y humor" is the motto of the life of Lander and Ylenia, couple in real life and couple now on stage. "This work has been gestated in those hours of coexistence during confinement. These are moments that you then transfer to paper and then take them to the stage," they say.
The pandemic is taking its toll on people's moods, which is why it is so important to find moments of light: "In these times we need love and humor. We have to pamper ourselves a lot and that is why in this play we want people to leave better than they came in because it is a deeply funny play," explain the actors.
At times musical and at times stand up comedy, the play "is a tribute to the people we admire," say the actors. And they add: "There are things that are real, but what of what we say is true and what is a lie? That's the game we bring to the stage. We are going to be us in our pure state and each spectator will have to discover it", they assure. Everything will be developed through well-known songs that Naiel Ibarrola will bring to life on the piano. "We want people to join us; we want them to sing and dance. We need it," explain the actors.
AN HOUR AND A QUARTER OF EMOTION
Lander Otaola and Ylenia Baglietto perform at the Euskalduna Palace the play Amor y Humor sin caretas (Love and Humor without masks), without playing the role of any character. The staging is autobiographical and fictional and reality is constantly mixed with music and cabaret moments.
"It's us, Lander and Ylenia in a pure state," they say. Ylenia Baglietto and Lander Otaola present a show that they describe as biting, ironic, funny and deeply moving. "Don't ask us what the show is about because we don't know ourselves, we only ask you to join us on this journey," they say, as they have embarked on a new adventure with the CID/FCA agency. "We have no grants or subsidies. It's crazy in these times, we know, but .... "If it doesn't work out, we're the only ones responsible," explains Lander. The main goal is that people who come to the Euskalduna feel free, sing, laugh. "We promise that it will be an hour and a quarter of emotion, in which they will forget about their problems and will come out valuing life more and being happier. We want this play to be a cure," the actors conclude.
