Yo sobreviví a la EGB

A comedy monologue by Jordi Merca about childhood in the 1980s and EGB, a stand-up set that revisits that era with memories and plenty of irony about what we were like back then.

Yo sobreviví a la EGB is a comedy monologue by Jordi Merca that looks back at the 1980s through the eyes of someone who grew up in that decade. It sits within the stand-up tradition and takes as its raw material the childhood of the time, in particular the clothes parents chose for children to wear to school, likened to mannequins in some strange experiment.

The show invites the audience to recognise themselves in those years and to compare who they were then with who they are today. According to the show's own presentation, it combines humour with moments of music, designed to make for an evening of laughter and memories.

The performance takes place at the Centre Cultural la Llagosta, a theatre in the town, with this monologue by Jordi Merca as the sole item on the programme for the session.
