Programme notes

Making a critique of what we appear to be but are not through black humor and sitting to see and hear things that would not generate any “like” on social networks, it is as original and daring as it is real and necessary. The suffering of the protagonist, who constantly attracts people of all kinds but with the same profile: they speak but they do not listen, leading him to an eccentric psychiatrist in order to find a solution to this problem.

Based on a Vienna cafe and inspired by the personality of Sigmund Freud and Thomas Bernhard, the bold Raquel García Tomas, Helena Tornero and later Marta Pazos thought about how to ally their enormous creativity in order to break the mirror of each one of us and to open a window that allows us to enter the breeze and extend the horizons of our absurd comfort zone. Nine scenes and four players who, by developing seventeen different roles, will make us laugh, they will make us think and above all.
