[x]Paul Weibel - Theatre-maker
TV documentary
Year of production: 2009
In a satellite town of Valencia, the group Chapao is working on a
new play; they write scenes about their experiences in their own areas,
addressing unresolved questions. Paul Weibel works with them as a
director
and helps to consolidate the dramatic moments and their credibility.
After his actorÂ’s training in the 60s, Paul Weibel soon started to set
up an alternative to state theatre. Being committed to independent,
political theatre work, he became the co-founder of the group “Claque”
in Baden (Switzerland). The film shows the development of his
particular approach to theatre up to his present work in Valencia – and
will be a statement for culture as a human right.
