La imagen olvidada

Contemporary theatre written and directed by Esther Pais, with the company PentaMorfosis: a protagonist confronts a past that resurfaces when a mysterious woman enters her life.

This contemporary theatre piece follows Ava, a woman shaped by the expectations of her family and her circle, who fears showing herself as she truly is. Everything changes when a stranger appears and a past Ava believed she had left behind begins to claim a place in her life. Amid fragmented memories, deteriorating bonds and a reality that is becoming less and less certain, the protagonist must face what she had tried to forget.

The cast is made up of Sonia Cánovas, Sarai González, Macarena Moyano and Aitana Torrero. Esther Pais is the author and director, and the company PentaMorfosis is credited with the production, with José Medina in charge of the technical side.

The play poses a central question: what happens if what you thought was forgotten never forgot you? It reflects on memory and on the decisions a person makes to fit in with what is expected of them. The performance takes place at La Usina, a Madrid venue that hosts concerts and shows.
