La Glorieta
La glorieta (Creative laboratory)
Small Glory.
A meeting of different out of order artists to trace a commune map without the requirement to focus all their different interests in the same way.
We are there to mix all our languages, practices and tools to start working, to loss ourselves, and from there look at reality again.
La glorieta becomes then an observatory. A group of artists observing and blindly describing what they don not see. It is a tool that allows us to re look at reality, to activate a personal and singular eye.
To look at what we already do not see any more, that it presents every day in front of us like a plain and insignificant frame. To reactivate our observation, a decisive one, critic in front of reality and in front of oneself.
It is a oblique strategy to look for the peripheral , the revel phantoms and a deconstruction our position of power in the creation process.

Fernando Pessoa Club
"How many times have I too, who laugh at such seductive distractions, find myself conjecturing how wonderful it would be to be famous, how pleasant to be fussed over, how exciting to be triumphant." Fernando Pessoa
The raw, stark desolation of Pessoa's views and thoughts take the reader to a state close to serious introspection. On stage, Societat Doctor Alonso creates a humoristic tone which emphasises the incredible capacity of Pessoa, in order to describe and reveal the great absurdity which envelops our existence.
This is a world of person-personalities who find in Pessoa the perfect refuge through which to interpret the often hostile and incomprehensible world in which we live. The characters are several solitary souls who find solace together having discovered their own private space in this small, desolate yet somewhat absurd fan club.

Volume II
One of the main goals of the company led by Tomàs Aragay and Sofía Asencio is to occupy the stage in an ever-different manner.

Portraits, or If I were
Portraits, or If I were is a series of body portraits seen through the body of a dancer. It is an appropriation of the body of another, of identity expressed in bodily movement. An anthropological work of the movements of bodies of nameless people from around the world. A choreography, a ritualisation of particular and non-transferable movement.
"However, beyond this first layer of objective observation of the portrayed being, Portraits, or If I were, is also an exercise in science fiction, in which there is, on the one hand, the space, the objects and the life of the woman portrayed, and on the other, a foreign body, my own, which it replaces.
Portraits was created from the desire to be another person, to have another body and another life.
Finally, on speaking about others I speak about myself.
This perversion is the tension which sustains each portrait."
