JUAN MIRANDA (AR / SP - 1985) Theatre maker and researcher.

After he accomplished theatre studies in Buenos Aires, he obtains his Bachelor's degree in Theatre Directing and Dramaturgy at the Institut del Teatre in Barcelona. He is currently participating in the Master DAS Theatre with the support of a scholarship from the Bank Foundation 'La Caixa'.

His research is triggered by the that lies behind images and how the cinematic universe can perform from the scene. What makes an image present? How can we define their materiality and immateriality from theatre? His artistic work generally looks for excessive and passionate performativity, leading to gestures of exhaustion. 

He has directed by Ivor Martinic (La Manufacture des Abbesses, Paris 2020. Finalist Project of the Young Directors Contest of the Théâtre 13 de Paris, 2018) by Eimear McBride (Tamayo Museum, Mexico City 2019) (FIDCU, Montevideo Uruguay 2017, Sala Hiroshima 2016, FID 2015, Grec Festival, Fira Tàrrega and Temporada Alta 2015) (Centre de Creació l’animal a l’esquena 2017, ACT Bilbao Festival 2017, FID 2015, Graner, Dansa Ara La Pedrera Festival 2014), in collaboration with Nao Albet and Marcel Borràs (TNT Terrassa 2017, Théâtre de l’Archipel, Perpignan 2017, Festival Grec 2015) by Felicia Zeller (Versus Teatre 2015), by Manuel Puig (Versus Teatre, 2014) (Museu d’Art Contemporani de Santa Monica, Antic Teatre, Pradillo Theater, L’Estruch 2013).
