Note from the author and director

In 2028, someone lied to me—spectacularly. And ever since, I’ve lived both horrified and fascinated by lies in equal measure. I’ve always been drawn to the line between reality and fiction, but for the past few years… wait… Did that happen to me, or to someone else? It was many years ago—I can’t remember clearly…
Suddenly, these lines begin to blur. A thick fog starts to settle over them and only a few words remain visible… Lie…. line…. wait….
You have to wave the smoke away with your hand to keep reading the synopsis.

It seems to work, because now you can make out the next few lines: Did it happen to me? Didn’t that short-sighted actress tell me the story? The words begin to fade again into the white background, too slanted, on the verge of collapsing… between that and the fog, you can’t quite make out the synopsis… What is this play about? You wonder….
With some effort, you manage to catch glimpses of a few scattered words and phrases: “…deep distrust…” “…better not to step on that part of the stage….” ….I can’t see clearly…” “…. It’s easier to imagine the end of the world…” While you decipher these sentences something seems to be crawling behind you! you turn around but see nothing. You look back at this text and… wait a second — how do I know all this? Who am I, in fact? Who is writing this text? Have you assumed I’m Cris Blanco, the author of Casi ninguna verdad? Perhaps it’s best not to trust appearances.

Biography

Cris Blanco

Cris Blanco

Cris Blanco was born in the Peñagrande-Lacoma neighbourhood of Madrid. Although she earned a degree in Acting from RESAD in 2002, she has always written and directed her own stage works since graduating. She also performs in all of them—and sometimes appears in films. As a performer, she has worked with Alfredo Sanzol, Xavier Leroy, Cuqui Jerez, Los Bárbaros and Vanessa Espín, among others, and in film with Icíar Bollaín, Roser Aguilar and Belén Funes.

Her stage works include Cuadrado – Flecha – Persona que corre (2004), The set Up (2008), ciencia_ficción (2010), El Agitador Vórtex (2014), Bad Translation (2016), Pelucas en la Niebla (2018), Lo pequeño (2019, alongside Jorge Dutor and Guillem Mont de Palol), Grandíssima Illusione (2022) and Pequeño cúmulo de abismos (2023).

She has presented her work at national and international festivals, museums and theatres, and has had the good fortune to receive production support from La Villette in Paris, the Centro Dramático Nacional, the Grec Festival, Le Phénix, El Mercat de les Flors and Condeduque, among others.

She is a great fan of cinema, especially science fiction, and her stage work draws on this genre as well as from the visual arts, music and low-brow culture. For a long time, her primary circuit was dance, and she approaches performance from a choreographic perspective. She is interested in the mechanisms of theatre itself and its conventions, in metatheatre, humour, the blending of genres and formats, and above all, in the relationship with the audience.
