#LOCOBRUSCA
I am...
My name is LUISLOCOBRUSCA (La Pampa, Argentina, 1964). I am an actor, director, sculptor, photographer, diagnosed as a psycho-clown (I don't know when, or by whom...) and I specialise in street performance-theatre and body-language in all types of spaces, theatres, films, circus, cabarets and streets.
Taking humor as a fundamental work tool, I have developed my own style to recreate in any area; with which I manage to get closer and involve an astonished, but always attentive, audience.
Through years of work and experience, I have acquired numerous skills that make me a flexible, complete professional and define me as LOCOBRUSCA.
I started studying acting at the National School of Dramatic Art in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Choosing to develop as an artist in Barcelona, I studied Film Directing while I began to take my first steps in street acting. My apprenticeship with the teachers Johnny Melville, Jango Edwards, Albert Vidal, Gabriel Chamé Buendía and Elizabeth Couchetief in the late 80's, helped me enter the universe of comedy.
Later, I began to polish clown acting with John Wright, Philipe Gaulier; the drama skill with Ernie Martín (Actors Studio); the body language with Tapa Sudana (Mind-Body-Spirit), Yoshito Ohno (Butoh), Monika Pagneux (Body and Play), Anne Denis (Making Visible the Invisible); and experimental theater with Stephan Metz and Jan Ferslev (Odin Teatro - 2012).
My training in butoh with Yoshito Ohno, Imre Thormann, Jean Daniel Fricker and Atsushi Takenouchi began in 2005. Since then, I have researched body alchemy with clown-butoh-jester-pantomime-theater, and created the works GUASAVI, AGONY OF NATURE and MR "X".

Combining different and particular visions of the times we live in with various languages of humor: white, adult, black, intellectual, childish, acidic, bizarre, political, picaresque, direct, indirect, etc., my characters Speerman, General Mierden, Don Zoilo, 21st Century Schizoid Man, Guasavi and Mr “X”, are some of the productions that currently show my evolution. These characters allow my shows – in several languages, or silent – adapt to all types of spaces; publics and programs.
I have participated in festivals of theater, street-performance, and television around the world, and entertained all types of audiences.
I have also collaborated in Cirque du Soleil productions (2006, Dralion-Berlin and 2002, Golden Lions, China-Japan).
I have directed circus and theater shows and collaborated as a scriptwriter in TV series (Pets & Pets) and I have also participated as an actor in television series and advertising.
As a teacher, I teach expression technique courses in various countries such as Korea, Japan, Italy, Venezuela, Mexico, Spain, Italy, Argentina, among others.

My work axis rests on simple ideas, and is based on the actor, his world, resources, capacity and experience; not on the technology or the clothing. Not just a performer, but an artist who has something to say. |
