📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Technical and Human Integration of Cultural Spaces (ITHEC) is a Cultural Association whose goal has been the development of the performing arts and its pedagogy since 1991. It also works in other aspects of the performing arts such as the organization of meetings and training for young artists, or the coordination of youth volunteer camps (Huesca is Legend, which takes place in Huesca and Jorearte, in Santa Eulalia de GEUllego)

💼 What the programme involves

1- Introduction to History and local characters: We will visit with the workcampers the Provincial Historical Museum, the Municipal Archive, and the Diocesan Museum of Huesca. We will have the collaboration of the following specia-lists: Susana Villacampa, curator of the Diocesan Museum of Huesca and Jesus ArbuEs, thea-ter director specialized in historical shows. This part of the Volunteer Camp will be developed in the Diocesan Museum and in the Young Art Space of Huesca managed by the ITHEC Association.2- Design of a theatrical route that explains the local history: Javier GarcEa Ortega, professor of the Municipal Workshops of Theater of Huesca and actor of Theatricals Productions Viridiana will lead this part of the project. This will require the creation of a climate of trust among the participants that creates an appropriate atmosphere. Once this is achieved, the most interesting events and characters studied in the previous section will be evaluated and the contents of the route will be gene-rated. This phase will take place in the Young Art Space of Huesca, with the materials that it has for activities with young people. 3- Rehearsals of the actors who will stage the guided tour:Javier GarcEa will give dramatic shape to the chosen events and one or more characters will be assigned to each volunteer. This is the fundamental part of the work camp, as for several days the only work will be to memorize the text and rehearse the different scenes to repre-sent them. The rehearsals will take place at the Espacio de Arte Joven in Huesca4- Production work of dramatized routes: For the show to have the best possible result it will be necessary to stock up on costumes and atrezzo properly.Thats why the same volunteers will work on the selection of costumes and accessories that serve to make the show have an almost professional result. This work will be done with ITHECs own materials and rented to local theater companies. It will be realized at the Young Art Space.5- Communication and dissemination of dramatised routes.Through the Tourist Office, social networks and local media. From the Young Art Space of Huesca, with the material of the ITHEC Association (computers, internet connection...) A press release will be drafted and we will try to visit some local media. 6- Development of two sessions of dramatized routes. These visits will be free for spectators and they will tour the historic center of Huesca.
