"The theater has helped me a lot."

  • “Everything that is hidden is lost, corrupted, turned off. Everything that is given grows.” Ibon Agudo has defined her personal development with the words of singer Mikel Markez. Agudo suffered a mental effusion six years ago. Today, taking control of the body, it is exploring and exploiting its capabilities.

18 February 2010. 8:45 in the morning. This is how the Agudo account has begun. “I was with my children waiting for the bus from the ikastola. I started to feel bad, and I grabbed heavily into the hands of June and Zuhaitz. I was in the hospital. Fortunately, I don’t remember the medium,” he explains. They underwent two operations. In the first he tells us that he was blind and that he doesn’t remember him “luckily.” But with the second, he retrieved almost all of his sight, except in one corner of his right eye.

Agudo has a normal life. He doesn’t have paid work for disability, “but work,” he says. Every day she deals with housework and children. He gets financial help, but he has to pass a test every two years. “The hardest thing is that you have to prove that you’re wrong when you want to send you positive messages every day,” he told us. In fact, last year we wanted to cut economic aid by half, as the report stated that “with help, but with work capacity”: “In this study I was asked general questions about who the authors of some books and other things like that were. I knew the answers. But one of the most relevant characteristics was not taken into account, i.e., being an epilectic”. The physician who evaluates thinks that, in addition to having health interests, he or she seeks economic interests: “Ever since I understood it, I have a different attitude, to defend something. It’s hard to have to defend something that’s true.” Agudo takes a case to the courthouse and tells us he won.

As we know, it was not easy to break the vein of the head that day of February. He has had to learn again to read and write, also the meaning of the streets... But he has stressed that every year he is able to do more, and he has stressed that progress can be made towards improvement: “Whoever is in the same situation as I create: it improves.” It asks society at large to lose fear and to put aside prejudices, not to turn its back, as they have never done to it: “I’m clear I don’t always have to tell this. I didn’t hide it, but I didn’t stress it either.”

In fact, Agudo's personality is not characterized by that, but by his creativity. Three years ago, he started in the theater and tells us that socialization and acting as an actor has helped him a lot. “From being in front of people and being invisible to being looked at by everyone. To receive an ovation. And not for sorrow, but for taste.”

The roads for the theater, the going and the going and the going and the going have pushed to mingle in all the sauces of the town. Among other things, he works in the residence of elderly people of the locality, dynamizing theatrical activities to promote Euskera once a week. Last year a work was created which has been presented in several places. Agudo brings ideas, makes scripts and also directs. On the other hand, he has worked the script and a character on his own and created a monologue: Kupela Klown. He explained to us that he is willing and willing to act anywhere and that he is “wishing” to receive invitations: “It makes me happy with the creativity and cultivation of the imagination. Invent a new recipe, draw, make humor, write, explain... In short, take the colors out of yourself.”
