A magnet that will stick in the refrigerator or a discovery fossil that will be a turning point in history? I mean, the discovery of the fossil. A worthless, sticky object or a memorable action that children will learn and tell their children. Purchase or realization. Personal or collective. What is the footprint we want to leave in this world? Where to go?
The three characters start from Ni to embark on the adventure of the camp of scientific simulations and telematic park in the Bardenas and, if necessary, space. In our world, on earth, they disagree, they have no experience and they're going to explore another world where they really have to act as if they were there. This increases the ability to overcome the limits imposed by both the brain and daily practice.
The reading and the work of the physical and emotional world will be mixed and discovered in both areas. They ask who it is and what it is, what we want and what we do.
Contradictions in different forms are inevitable: dress or swollen; in plastic, plant or machining. They're going to be visual and attractive, and they're going to exhibit more visually than verbally. This is one of the most interesting points of this work: spectacularity. The characters, besides flirting throughout space beyond the earth, lead the viewer to enjoy the space of the stage, explicitly expressing the idea of expulsion. The combination of the elements they use, the use of different resources and, above all, the selection of costumes and props, combine the game between the environment and the reality of another world. Around them three tortuous actors to maintain the character of the work.
Absurd languages make laughter and laughter even more absurd; contagious, with any word or gesture, easy. The authors are right to describe three “people intoxicated by the dream of space exploration.” Horman Poster now comes from the Antigone tragedy to make humor. The essence of this work is humor, alien comedies. And what humor is, what makes us laugh, what we seek, what we become ... Souvenir is not simple, insignificant or offensive. It is not stereotyped, neither normal nor expected. Souvenir is not cheap, it's not stutter, it's not greenish. It's absurd for better and for worse, because what it says gets lost in laughter. Humor is serious and can tell many things. I think it should not necessarily be limited to entertainment. However, this magnet that brings you closer to the refrigerator and smiles at you is a good memory.

Dreams can be classified into the set of phenomena we don't understand. Even though we don't understand them, they're so alive, so penetrating, so real. And how can we imagine dreams? The next morning we often don't remember the sleeping experiences, and when we wake up agitated,... [+]

In the post-performance colloquium, the public shares their opinions and reflections on what was seen and heard, and, in some way, the spectacle continues to work for the duration of this meeting. The sensations that somehow become memories give the sense of the work. That is... [+]
