Palabras is a children's show created by Francis Zafrilla, designed for all the family. The production shows how vocabulary helps us make sense of what surrounds us and explain what we feel, and how that ability to name things makes communication between people of all ages easier. Under the Catalan title Benvinguts a Palabras, the show uses a magical and playful tone as its common thread.

On stage, Francis is joined by three characters: Luka, Mateo and Lolo. Together they show that one and the same word can mean different things depending on the intonation and the intention with which it is spoken. Building on this game, the show addresses the importance of equality and respect, speaking to both adults and the youngest children.
