Processes of personal and community transformation through art, education and cultural mediation.
We facilitate processes of personal and community transformation through art, education and cultural mediation.
Our actions include workshops, trainings, artistic creations and community projects.
Activities and actions
We are developing new projects combining Forum Theatre, puppetry and participatory workshops. Through these artistic approaches, we aim to explore and address diverse social challenges.
Theater del bon viure
Together with the Trinitat Nova Community Health Network, we create Forum Theatre performances that invite the community to reflect on health and wellbeing.
Rehearsals and staging of My Name Is Liu
This family-friendly theatre production combines puppetry, live music, masks and shadow theatre. Through Liu’s story, we invite children and families to reflect on gender stereotypes.
Forum Theatre with Older Adults
Ageism is a form of discrimination and oppression that older adults may experience. Through Forum Theatre, we create spaces for collective reflection and action to challenge it.
Workshops
Through applied theatre and non-formal education, we explore diverse social challenges from an intersectional and intercultural perspective.
