“If you have built a castle in the air, you have not wasted your time, that is where it should be. Now you must build the foundation under it”. This thought of Bernard Shaw is a true sentence for those who build castles in the air and remain only in dreams and frustrations. To prevent this from happening, simply you have to work, fight, insist and not let yourself be defeated. With this introduction by director Adolfo Mier Rivas, we highlight two strong women, entrepreneurs in theater and music.
Artists from childhood
These two ‘naughty girls’ give us an object lesson when we see them at the Mier Show that has “CunumiVerso”, their new show, on the billboard. They didn’t just dream of being actresses to be drenched in stage lights. They woke up their elf from a very young age. Paula Ibáñez at 10 years old and Carolina Bessolo at 14they began to know the sensations of being illuminated by the magic of the theater.
talented and creative
They started building sand castles and after more than 20 years, they are still doing it. In times when being a professional in the performing arts was crazy, they believed in theater. With their creativity and talent they dignified the role of women in this art and they carry it as a banner to tell people that theater is not dead.
They survived two years of deprivation due to the pandemic, but they never gave up on continuing to demonstrate on the stage of the Show de Mier, which every weekend, the round year, lights its footlights to give Santa Cruz the option to laugh and have fun in the divine pastime that theater represents.
They started acting in different roles, creating characters. Then they sang and danced. Now we surprise by making music in a very original way and, as if that were not enough, they write scripts, they are circus acrobats climbing on large hoops, to show us that they scribble with great mastery and courage on a stage of lights.
multifaceted
They are women who go on stage to offer the public their best creations. They are also mothers, professionals graduated from university and some ‘seamstresses’ of their time, because they put together so much skill to do a thousand and one things and not fail at anything. They employ an engineering that combines their main professions and their artistic activities with business and domestic activities, to continue building the foundations on which, every day, their dreams come true. They are a life lesson.
