Las mascaricas de curucurú es una tradición arraigada
entre las gentes de Overa, que toma como eje vertebrador la participación
popular espontánea. Años atrás (en la actualidad en menor medida), el domingo y
lunes de carnaval durante todo el día salían a las calles de Overa cuadrillas
de personas de uno y otro sexo de máscaras con alborotos y ruidos (haciendo
chocar tapaderas de las ollas, guitarras, trompetas…).
Las
formas rituales y de espectáculo se organizaban de manera cómica. Ofrecían una
visión del mundo, de la persona y de las relaciones humanas completamente
diferentes.
Los espectadores no asisten al carnaval sino que lo
viven e incluso en algunas ocasiones se convierten de forma espontánea en los
propios actores. Así lo he podido constatar durante el trabajo de campo
realizado para este artículo, donde me cuentan como mientras un grupo de
mascaricas iba por la calle componiendo un circo, donde no podían faltar
leones, trapecistas, etc., apareció de forma espontánea el domador del circo
que se unió a ellos participando de su espectáculo y que no era más que un
espectador que se animó al verlos y subió a su casa a caracterizarse. Así,
llenaban las plazas y las calles días enteros. En este contexto, podemos decir
que las mascaricas de curucurú ocupaban un componente público y teatral de
primer orden.
Los temas elegidos para su dramatización podían ser de
lo más variopintos. Desde una novia desventurada por que la había dejado su novio en el altar,
hasta unas “madames” de un burdel buscando chicas nuevas; desde una corrida de
toros hasta un entierro; desde unos emigrantes que tienen que salir de su país
hasta una parturienta que va a dar a luz acompañada por el médico y su familia,
pasando por aquellas chicas que con su maleta y hablando inglés simulaban
emprender camino para embarcarse a América…etc. La imaginación suplía a los
medios para “meterse en su papel” y crear una obra única.
En algunas barriadas como Santa Bárbara y la
Concepción era habitual agasajar a las mascaricas con algún convite por lo bien
que lo habían hecho y se le sacaban en las casas la botella de anís, la de
coñac y alguna galleta casera… Que eran recibidos con gran alborozo por las
mascaricas que, agradecidas, solían improvisar alguna gracia o párrafo más,
siempre sin perder la compostura de su representación
El desparpajo, la alegría, la ironía, la guasa y la
risa dirigida a la opinión pública presidían sus actuaciones en forma de
parodia. Su intención era declaradamente cómica, buscando la carcajada del
oyente-espectador. Podían adoptar la
forma de un “sermón” burlesco declamado por una única persona, o bien se
producía una “disputa” protagonizada por dos antagonistas o una escenificación
común de toda la cuadrilla de mascaricas, acompañados siempre del grupo de
vecinos que se iban sumando conforme hacían su puesta en escena por las calles
e iban llamando a las puertas de las casas con la frase insigne que les dio
nombre:
¡¡¡CURUCURÚ….QUE NO ME
CONOCES TÚ!!!
¡¡¡CURUCURÚ!!!…¿SE PERMITEN
MÁSCARAS?
