The main goal of the research was to put the voice in a central place in the performance and then, we wondered what devices should be put into play to achieve that goal. We developed a methodology taking a work by Samuel Beckett, Rockaby, in which the voice has a special treatment, from which we made a performatic rewrite.

Este escrito pretende dar cuenta del proceso de construcción de una performance artística llevada a cabo en la fiesta del Día de Muertos en el año 2017, como resultado de la Tesis de Especialización en Estudios de Performance. El objetivo principal de la investigación fue colocar la voz en un lugar central en la performance y entonces, nos preguntamos qué dispositivos deberían ponerse en juego para lograr ese objetivo. Elaboramos una metodología tomando una obra de Samuel Beckett, Rockaby, en la que la voz tiene un tratamiento especial, a partir ella hicimos una reescritura performática. Entonces, realizamos un diseño tentativo de acción configurando los elementos de manera tal que la voz tenga un lugar privilegiado. Por último, en consonancia con los lineamientos teóricos de los cuales partimos, arribamos a la conclusión de que la performance no tiene necesariamente límites fijos y siempre es susceptible de ser modificada de acuerdo a su contexto de acción, del cual pueden emerger nuevas significaciones. Para finalizar, planteamos nuevos interrogantes en torno a la utilización de la voz en la performance.
