He was one member of a memorable trio, with Batato Barea and Humberto Tortonese. At once monstrous and poetic, his acting was extraordinarily powerful, inspiring laughter and terror in large and equal doses. In 1991, he played Polonius in director Ricardo Bart\u00eds\u2019s version of Hamlet, prompting Batato Barea to say \u2018Traitor. This is the kind of theatre we swore we\u2019d never do.\u2019 Urdapilleta carried on regardless, staging everything from Thomas Bernhard\u2019s Almuerzo en casa de Ludwig W. [Lunch at Ludwig W.\u2019s], directed by Roberto Villanueva, to King Lear or Mein Kampf, directed by Jorge Lavelli, in the San Mart\u00edn Theatre\u2019s Mart\u00edn Coronado Hall. He wrote and drew and worked in film and television and across all the theatre circuits. As the author Liliana Viola puts it, \u2018His arrival at the San Mart\u00edn Theatre or the Cervantes Theatre after Parakultural or Ave Porco did not institutionalise queerness. Nor did he sell-out by moving into television. He took his luminous, incendiary and even scorching fire onto every board he trod.\u2019 The more than sixty notebooks he left behind, kept by his friends Rita Cortese, Horacio Dabbah, Alejandra Flechner and Cecilia Roth, contain drawings, thoughts, performance notes and even shopping lists. To read them is to see him acting in other ways.] A special thank you to Liliana Viola and Horacio Dabbah for their collaboration on this section.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/11-Alejandro-Urdapilleta-scaled.jpg 1560w, https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/11-Alejandro-Urdapilleta-183x300.jpg 183w, https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/11-Alejandro-Urdapilleta-624x1024.jpg 624w, https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/11-Alejandro-Urdapilleta-768x1260.jpg 768w, https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/11-Alejandro-Urdapilleta-936x1536.jpg 936w, https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/11-Alejandro-Urdapilleta-1248x2048.jpg 1248w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1560px) 100vw, 1560px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-51918","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51918","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=51918"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51918\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":52184,"href":"https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51918\/revisions\/52184"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51918"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=51918"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/museomoderno.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=51918"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
