In this thought-provoking session, Gloria Ribera explores the intricate relationship between heritage and innovation. The discussion focuses on how we can portray our cultural past as a dynamic force, rather than a stagnant relic that hinders progress. With a rich background in dramatic arts and creative writing, Ribera adeptly combines her artistic expertise with her work in José y sus Hermanas, a young theatrical company dedicated to reinterpreting the legacy of cabaret artists. Her upcoming projects include a series of performances that celebrate these cultural influences, illustrating their relevance in contemporary society. This event promises to question the interplay of tradition and modernity, encouraging participants to think deeply about the lessons history offers and how they can inspire creative expression today.
