Flor de greguerías

Object theatre show by Luna Teatro paying tribute to Ramón Gómez de la Serna through his greguerías, brief poetic and humorous images of everyday reality.

This show is a tribute to the poetic and humorous universe of Ramón Gómez de la Serna, a Madrid-born writer of the Generation of 1914. Its starting point is the greguerías, brief and unexpected associations of ideas with which the author changed the way we look at everyday things. The piece is organised as a succession of visual scenes in which a different way of looking transforms the ordinary.

It is object theatre: utensils and materials come to life and become characters and animated beings. Form, colour, sound, rhythm and movement shape the staging, which does not follow a conventional narrative but favours suggestion and evocation. Each image opens up new associations, so that the spectator builds their own route through the performance.

The production is designed for both children and adults and is conceived as a space for play and encounter. Its purpose is to awaken wonder by combining stage languages: the visual becomes almost musical and poetry is translated into emotion. In this way, the company revives the playful spirit of Gómez de la Serna and his idea that reality can always be reinvented.
