Abstract

The Laboratorio Escénico de Experimentación Social (LEES) is a Living Arts platform that brings together emerging Cuban and foreign artists. Through the curatorship and management of artistic programs, workshops, conferences and residencies, it assumes the "processes" as spaces for continuous experimentation. Some of his most powerful projects, which are carried out with the support of important cultural institutions, include Inservi, an artistic residence made for young creators who think their work of thought/action/creation together; and Documenta Sur, a program for the development of contemporary documentary theater that focuses on the exploration of new theatrical formats and socio-aesthetic research in Cuba based on work with "non-fictional documents" whose axes span the relationships between Theater and History, Theater and Memory, and Theater and Society.

The exquisite corpse below is a playful-poetic approach that its members rehearse: Martha Luisa Hernández Cadenas, Marta María Borrás, Yohayna Hernández González and Dianelis Diéguez.
