“We want to wake up again tomorrow. It’s a human desire, an intimate and political one, for which we need tools and great effort, but also tenderness and desire.”
—Marina Garcés
Renacimiento makes the microcosms of a stage set up and of its workers the center of the piece. We want to stop and observe the sort of dialogues and exchanges that take place there. A kind of cooperation still specific and tangible, where we find that, without the collective force, without the community, it is imposible to have everything ready for the moment when the curtain opens.
Renacimiento is drawn out of iconic moments taken from the History of Spanish democracy, a period that’s less than 50 years old. This landscape rebuilds, sometimes subtly and some others more graphically, the last years of our History. Not to judge it again, but to look at it from a different perspective, and so we may realise that everything is, always, still to be built.
Renacimiento is a show in which 20 performers, dancers, actors and technicians are on stage together. A celebration of the theatrical deed, which places at it’s core the value of group work, dialogue, and community.
