Dicha producción celebrará muy pronto sus 22 años en Repertorio, siendo así una de las obras en español con más tiempo de cartelera en los Estados Unidos. Todas las producciones en la nueva plataforma son presentadas en español con subtítulos en inglés y están disponibles a través de su sitio web www.repertorio.nySegún informa OnCuba Magazine, La compañía que dirige el popular actor y director cubano Jazz Vila transmitirá online desde este lunes 21 de septiembre "Vestuario o Maquillaje (VOM)", una serie que asume la comedia como género principal de la puesta en escena. Esta serie para internet, primera de su tipo en Cuba, asume la comedia como género principal de la puesta en escena, enriquecida con algunos guiños que apoyan una trama en la que no falta la picaresca propia del cubano, elemento habitual en las obras anteriores del JVP. Roberto Espinosa como Lachy, a quien recién vimos como René en la finalizada novela cubana El rostro de los días, y Malú Tarrau (Yurima), protagonizan esta nueva propuesta, con un elenco que incluye experimentados actores de la compañía como Cinthia Paredes, Michel Pentón y el cameo estelar de Marlon Pijuán. Completan el reparto Ernesto Escalona, Isis Santiago y el debutante Mark Rafel. La serie estará disponible en el canal de youtube Jazz Vila Project Plus y debe transmitirse en el canal habana en Cuba a finales de mes.

The blogger/journalist Yoani Sanchez, a leading dissident voice in Cuba and one of the most influential people in the world, according to Time Magazine, is on her first worldwide tour. Sanchez finally received her passport in January, after the Cuban government rejected her application 20 times. At the age of 37, Sanchez is the voice of a younger generation in Cuba. Her blog, Generación Y, receives millions of hits a day. Takeaway host John Hockenberry spoke with Sanchez (through a translator) about Cuban politics and her mission to scare the Castro regime while bringing the support of American policymakers into what she hopes will soon be the post-Castro era. Sanchez says her first exposure to freedom of speech in the United States has her hooked. "I find myself becoming very quickly addicted to that kind of freedom of expression." However, she has less admiration for other aspects of the United States, such as foreign policy posturing that she believes has exacerbated the situation in Cuba: "I think that policy coming from the U.S. the last 54 years has allowed for an environment of confrontation to take hold and the Cuban government has used that environment, that confrontation to justify all its acts…acts of oppression, acts of intimidation and to justify what it does." Amidst an environment rife with oppression and intimidation, Sanchez is most scared of living in fear: "There's fear at all levels of society and within the Cuban people. That comes from Raúl Castro. That comes from Fidel Castro. And so when you break that mold, when you are able to leave, you break down fear. And so they had to let people out because pressures were coming from within and now you see that fear subsiding.” Sanchez confronts her people's situation through her blog, a critical and often humorous expose of life in Cuba and the Cuban government. "Cubans from the diaspora in all corners of the world that follow me and read me, but there are also my countrymen within the island who are able to follow me and read me and keep abreast of what I say through alternative means although no internet Cubans have come up with alternative ways to communicate and through there they read me."
Cuba’s Castro dictatorship has clung to power for more than five decades. As the regime ages and the outside sources of finance that buttress it are put in jeopardy, a new generation of Cubans is using the Internet to dissent against the pervasive lack of freedom and opportunity in their country. Prominent Cuban dissident writers Yoani Sanchez and Orlando Luis Pardo Lazo — recently given permission to travel outside Cuba — will describe life in current-day Cuba, the activities of the island’s dissident community in the face of repression, and the prospects for a free country. They will also assess the extent of Raul Castro’s so-called reforms and share their vision of a pluralistic, tolerant society. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

This week: Duncan talks to installation and performance artist Tania Bruguera. TANIA BRUGUERA Tania Bruguera (born 1968, Havana, Cuba) is a Cuban installation and performance artist, trained at the Instituto Superior de Arte in Havana and at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Bruguera's work pivots around issues of power and control. She lives and works between Chicago and Havana. She is the founder and director of Arte de Conducta (behavior art), the first performance studies program in Latin America, which is hosted by Instituto Superior de Arte in Havana. She is also an Assistant Professor at the Department of Visual Arts of The University of Chicago, United States and is an invited professor at the University IUAV in Venice, Italy. A March 2009 performance by Tania Bruguera, at an arts centre in Havana, has been involved in controversy. During the performance Tania Bruguera put up a microphone and told people in attendance they could say whatever they wanted for one minute. Various of the attendees use the opportunity to ask for “freedom” and “democracy”. One of these was the awarded blogger Yoani Sanchez. The Cuban government denounced this in a statement saying that it considered “this to be an anti-cultural event of shameful opportunism that offends Cuban artists and foreigners who came to offer their work and solidarity." Another controversial performance in September 2009 in the National University of Colombia (Bogota branch), included consumption of cocaine provided by the artist to the attendants. According to University officials, the artist asked for permission to carry a weapon and use cocaine but permission was denied.
