Deforme por una Akademia

A black-humour comedy in a grotesque register that satirises the effort of fitting into a world that squeezes, with work and retirement as its backdrop. Performed at Salto Escénico, Madrid.

This proposal starts from an uncomfortable question: how many years of effort does it take to end up living like the animal we already were? Drawing on black humour and the grotesque, the comedy builds a physical satire on the pain of adapting to an environment that presses down like a new shoe.

The piece has a surreal tone and focuses on the body and gesture. Those who have accumulated qualifications and weariness to earn the right to retire will find here a self-critical gaze, presented with irony.

The play holds that the way out lies not in an abstract freedom, but in learning to open the next door. It is a studio show in Madrid's listings at Salto Escénico, a space that hosts concerts and shows in the city.
