Mujer en Cinta de Correr Sobre Fondo Negro

Contemporary theatre piece by the Malaga-born artist in which words and movement intertwine on a treadmill. Winner of the 2022 Max Award, it runs for 57 minutes.

A single performer occupies the stage and reflects with humour on textile overproduction, capitalism, entertainment, culture, languages, nicknames and the service sector. The mouth works as a choreographic instrument: sounds repeat, catch and come apart, so that the word ends up dancing alongside the gesture.

The body works for 57 minutes as an exercise in endurance on a treadmill. The performer engages with the objects in the space: a nine-metre rope, a giant ball, a ribbon and a dance-air, with which she maintains a stage struggle of great intensity.

The piece won the Max Award for Best Revelation Show 2022 and the Ojo Crítico Award for performing arts the same year, and it also received the award for Best Performance at the VI Ateneo Awards. Its author directs the Autóctonxs Scene Festival and presents ¿Tú sabes lo que es una posidonia?, a new show produced by Teatro del Soho CaixaBank.
