AREQUIPA, Peru – The renowned comedian Ulises Toirac denounced this Monday on Facebook the censorship and repression of the Cuban regime. This, after his participation in a comedy club at the Café Teatro Bertolt Brecht in Havana was banned.
“Again the long arm of the law. She was coordinating performing at an invitation from the guys who make her, in a comedy group that takes place on Saturdays at the Bertolt Brecht Café. ‘Coincidentally’ I can’t work there either,” Toirac wrote.
“I don’t know why I get the impression that the list I’m on is getting darker. Anyway. The blockade, but at 30 hands,” added the comedian.
In the comments of the publication, the artist received the support of his followers, who debated the arbitrariness of the regime and the implications of its rights violations.
“Ulysses, that is so painful and so ugly, that it even makes me ashamed, I have nothing to do with it. I am concerned about your work, your being and being, because you need to work to live and the public also needs you,” says a user identified as Raúl de la Rosa.
“So much injustice is outrageous, when it has been seen that human beings are denied the right to earn their bread honestly. For God’s sake, we are living in very difficult times,” laments Tania Martínez, another Internet user.
In response to one of the comments, Toirac offered details about all the times that the dictatorship has prevented him from working in recent years.
“Only once in an activity a few months ago they explicitly said that I could not appear. From another proposal for a theatrical show they asked to remove me from the cast. This is the fourth time I have tried to work somewhere in the state and it ‘failed’ to be able to do so. Green with a tip…”, he highlighted.
In recent years, Ulises Toirac has become one of the most visible critical figures within the artistic world on the Island, using his platform on social networks to react to the situation in the country and denounce government decisions.
“It’s not Gil’s fault. Joaquín will come and he will not decide anything either, he will have to deal with dictated solutions,” he highlighted.
