“Sack Woman” is an allegory of the strength and perseverance of women. It is a poetic and visual action. It’s the depiction of something history does not even dare to name. It’s about naming the world. It’s a walk. It’s about keeping going. It’s about pressing forward.
A walk
A woman
100 kg
100 women
All women.
An astronaut from the past?
A terrestrial lunatic?
A Quixote with a rocket?
Venture out, make up your mind, take the leap and fall without a parachute!
Life lasts three seconds and two of them are spent sleeping…
Take it easy, La Churry will make you understand the concept of:
‘Goddess level way of life’.
A multi-disciplinary show that combines circus and movement
with the unusual element of water. A large aquarium filled with
water is used as a pretext to talk about silences, barriers and
overcoming. It’s a journey into the depths of the subconscious
through the experience of apnea, where the space of sound and
light is also the protagonist.
Carlo Mô appears with a wall on his back, carrying everything he finds, with his absurd survival instinct.
Like the burdens of life, all this sometimes becomes something beloved and necessary, and other times a useless and endless work, similar to that of Sisyphus in Greek mythology or that of Diogenes accumulating emotions and memories.
Absurdity gives meaning to his life and perhaps to ours.
Outdoors version teaser (Indoors, below)
Indoors version:
To see, not just look. To experience, not just sense.
PANORAMA redefines the theatrical experience as its rotating viewing cabinet transforms reality into fantasy, provoking our senses and re-mystifying the world we inhabit.
PANORAMA’s innovative approach to theatre is based on a pop-up structure which rotates 360º on its own axis. Through a window, the audience experiences the world outside. Over progressive rotations that world starts to change, evolve, abstract. Not just through the actions and interventions of the actors outside, but also through the general public, who find themselves becoming an integral part the story. The observer is no longer simply a consumer of theatre, but co-creator of it.

“AUTOMATÀRIUM”
An automaton side show/installation
Automatàrium is an installation inspired by the fairground attraction of coin-activated automatons constructed in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
In this installation, actors are located within individual booths made of wood and methacrylate (imitating the old buildings) and activated with coins that the audience inserts in a slot.
Once a coin is inserted, colored bulbs light up and circus music plays. The performers begin mimicking the robotic and cyclical movements of the automatons, enacting short actions with elements of comedy, circus, magic, storytelling, song, and mime…

An artistic hairdressing show with a musical groove
Get your head together!
An artistic hairdressing show with a musical groove.
The Catalan group from Barcelona takes an excentric and colourful beauty salon onstage, where creation and fantasy have no limit. With two hairdressers and a DJ, the show recycles and transforms quotidian things into unique objects that give the final touch to the stunning head sculptures created live on the more daring members of the public.
Together with the music, the hairstyles recreate a universe full of fantasy where the wildest dreams are possible. Sienta la Cabeza combines hairdressing and art to give a new meaning to audience participation, whilst the music creates an exotic soundtrack that adds dimension and colour to creation of the hairstyles.
Literally a show that will make your hair stand on end, this is for you to see , hear, and try… if you dare!
