Puppet work: "Els Cecs" (The Blind) in La Mercantil de Balaguer

Don't miss the puppet show: "Els Cecs" (The Blind) at La Mercantil de Balaguer!

Days: October 19 at 8pm and October 20 at 6pm.

Synopsis. In a forest of eternal airs and under a starry sky, faceless, blind and mysterious characters are unable to make any decision. Fear constantly conditions their view of the world and forces them to stay still. Individualism and lack of empathy make them complicit in what happens around them. This is the starting point for a free adaptation of the classic work of symbolist theatre The Blind by Maeterlinck, which deals with inner blindness and isolation. According to the artists, these are two of the great tragedies of the 21st century.

The winning piece of the second edition of Estrena't al territori, stages a daring game between puppet and manipulator that will delight anyone who wants to discover a daring and exquisite proposal of puppet theatre for adults.

Estrenate en el territorio is an initiative born to promote emerging theatre creation by supporting new companies for the production and tour of their own plays. It is organised by the Sala Trono (Tarragona), the Teatro de la Aurora (Igualada), the Sala La Planeta (Girona), La Casa del Teatro Nu (San Martín de Tous) and the Sala Mercantil (Balaguer).
