(CNN Spanish) - During this quarantine due to the covid-19, the singers and artists have been doing multiple activities on social networks, from concerts, monologues, cooking and everything that creativity can explore.
On this occasion, Mexican actors Adriana Louvier, Claudia Álvarez, Ana Layevska, Mauricio Garza and Humberto Busto star in the online play Felices Anónimos that will be broadcast on YouTube in order to raise funds to support the most vulnerable families in the industry Mexican artist, such as artists, stagehands, technicians, staff, makeup artists and box office members, in this time of crisis.
But is it a play? Actress Ana Layevska explains it: “It is a way of exercising your profession in this pandemic. The head is Carlos Quintanilla and what he tried to do at the beginning was to make each one work from his home that speaks of the confinement in a metaphorical way and the most important thing is the purpose it has, in which people can donate something for the actors and people related to the guild who live daily and do not have anything to eat today, through the Artepro foundation. "
For her part, Adriana Louvier said: “Carlos and I concluded that it is not a play, since, being a recorded project, it is no longer live. It has a process of editing and musicalization. This project is digital content. It is a complicated task, because it is something new and strange to tell a story with a scenography, without an audience and from the corner of your house. It is recorded and it is living a new concept ”.

In this quarantine, a group of colleagues came up with a project to zoom in… .and this is the result. For the first time we made virtual fiction each one from our homes. Why? The idea is to always create and entertain and now help us ... because these days there are many people in need and the colleagues who work in theater and TV generally live daily as well as many in Mexico. This Thursday at 9pm "Happy Anonymous" premieres on YouTube. Right there there will be a link to generate donations. Help us to help and learn something completely new and different. @lalouvier @humbertobusto @claudiaalvarezo @mauriciogarza_ @carlosquintanillas

What is it about?
The staging is written and directed by Carlos Quintanilla, who wrote the Netflix series Control Z, and will touch on topics related to the life of a group of young adults. “Four human beings enter a strange place where they promise to get the best version of themselves. Along the way they will discover that the pursuit of happiness is not easy and they will have to decide whether to continue living as they have done so far, or to jump into the void and find themselves to reincarnate to a better next life.
“The story is a metaphor for confinement, in which the characters are locked in some non-specific space, where they, through physical and mental exercises, bring out the best versions of themselves, or at least they want to. These characters are directed and guided by "Diana", her guru who motivates them with unorthodox methods to find the best version of themselves. These characters can only coexist through cameras and the end is the best, it is very interpretive in which the 5 characters face the reality they are living and will bring out the human trash with the worst of each character, "says Ana Layevska.
