Theatre, contemporary dance and cultural management have quietly helped to transform the way Peru perceives itself. However, their social impact remains little known and under-valued. Can they help us to understand a form of violence that statistics fail to explain? To express that for which there are as yet no words? Theatre director Miguel Almeyda Morales and the dancers and creators Greta García and Morella Petrozzi, whose careers have combined artistic creation with the promotion of cultural policies and institutions; and the Arequipa-based artist Doris Guillén Delgado, will engage in a dialogue with Santiago Rojas, from CAF, on the role of the performing arts as tools for memory, imagination and social transformation.
