Dues ales

A children's show in which Mr Guillem, an older man, finds a pair of wings planted in his garden and recalls a treasure he buried as a child. Directed by Dora Cantero, with Jordi Farrés and Pep Farrés on stage.

The story begins with a simple event: Mr Guillem, who has an absent-minded air, discovers a pair of wings in his garden without knowing how they got there. Intrigued, he asks the neighbours, who laugh half-heartedly at the situation, until he notices that the wings are planted in the soil. Then he remembers that, as a child, he buried a box full of treasures in that very spot.

The plot moves forward from that memory: the wings would be those treasures, which have put down roots over time. The tone is nostalgic and has a fantastical air, and the show closes with an ending of strong emotional force.

The staging is by Dora Cantero, with dramaturgy by Jordi Palet and authorship credited to Cristina Bellemo and Mariachiara Di Giorgio. On stage are Jordi Farrés and Pep Farrés. The show is performed at the Teatre Conservatori de Manresa, a venue that hosts shows in the city.
