You have the floor: notes on theatricality and justice by José Antonio Sánchez

Mexico

What would have happened if Hamlet had been arrested after stabbing Polonius and processed for murder? When theater addresses judicial proceedings, it paradoxically becomes interested in the failures of justice and their ethical limits. It raises questions that have no place in legal debate and, in addition to its symbolic effectiveness, brings debates into the public sphere that can give rise to legislation and agreements. This conversation will delve into the book "You Have the Floor: Notes on Theatricality and Justice" by José Antonio Sánchez, which addresses the political function of representation and the theatrical dimension of trials.
