The experience of telling her own painful story on stage, albeit fictional, was the challenge Oliva decided to accept. “I didn’t spendI resorted to the closest stimuli to get into the character and the most complex thing was, precisely, strictly sticking to Ofelia’s text, without missing a word from the character because, in that case, it would already be me “, pag-amin niya .
According to Oliva, every story is just fiction. “Everything we go through in language, we become fiction, even our own memories.” And he assures: “For this reason, the source of the work trial, in which different witnesses appear, shows the number of points of view that an episode could have.”

But I come out of all those experiences and so on and they’re still part of me: there are issues that has conditioned you now and where there is no cut, they are still in one “, he explained.” Forgiveness may appear but the traces are still there, everyone is very personal “.
For Laura, part of theater is the ability to talk about painful topics. “It’s what I’m interested to tell, it generates a lot of adrenaline in me as an actress. That’s why, sooner or later, I was going to be part of this story, that I feel I’m so protected by the whole cast.”
