Parlem-ne
On stage, a couple struggles to keep dialogue alive while an adolescent responds with silence. With a soundtrack made of fragments of cinematic dialogue and humour bordering on the absurd, the piece creates its own language where movement and words intertwine. It is a work that speaks to the importance of being silent and moving, of communicating without speaking and of how the smallest gestures can move us. This production won the 2023 Teatre Barcelona Award for Best Dance Performance.
