The wings of imagination set us free… when we spread them, we discover a universe of dreams that return images to us, draw our anatomy, play with geometry and show us perspective. They allow us to fly. To see nature (our own, too). And together with dreams, to find our most secret ambitions. A trip on horseback turns us into birds with wings that we secretly desire. And having a fun dinner (that last dinner, which we repeat tirelessly!): Welcome to the game! To the dream!

Labranza Kids is the adaptation of the artistic project Labranza for girls and boys. It offers an activity where the main objective is to connect with the rural area through dance. Labranza Kids offers its participants the possibility of experiencing the creative process of a dance show, accompanied by the choreographers and dancers of the Lamajara Collective. Labranza Kids is a proposal designed for girls and boys from 6 to 12 years old that uses the figure of the farmer and the artist to identify the similarities in both fields and see how they coexist. This version of Labranza is approached with a contemporary and conceptual vision of the relationship between “man x field”, “dancer x body”, the landscape of the countryside taken to the geography of the body. A constant comparison of two types of bodies that in their daily lives modify what surrounds them through their movement.

A participatory experience for audiences ages 6 and up that combines urban dance, contemporary culture, manipulation of objects and playful experimentation with the physics of color and light. A city of shadows is a declaration of intentions of how hybrid scenes can also be accessible to young audiences and the potential they have as a disinhibiting, exciting, collaborative and pedagogical instrument. A potential, free space, where we will build a city with shadows, colors and rhythms, alive and changing, in which we will play and learn in equal parts with the artistic manipulation of light and contemporary urban dance.

“Geometry of the Soul” is a fusion of visual theatre, contemporary dance and object manipulation that expresses the relationship between simple geometric shapes and the human body, a body that will try to give soul to geometry in order to understand the geometry of the soul that is within it. An alternative theory to the beginning of the universe and the evolution of forms and life until reaching the perfect being.

LÓNG [|ˈlɒŋ| long (English): long/ 龍 lóng (Chinese): dragon] contains multiple meanings, as it is a word whose reading and meaning varies according to each person’s origin and cultural context.

“You and I” is a unique journey that explores how boundaries and limitations can become powerful drivers, establishing a connection between me and you, you and I. At its core, this show embraces all forms of diversity – for us, diversity is not a label, it is a celebration of the multiple ways we all experience the world. Designed especially for early childhood, this show opens up a world of possibilities for babies, children (6 months and up) and families. At “You and I” we celebrate diversity and make inclusion our norm. With the motto “A sensitive show for a diverse audience,” our mission is to generate a creative and welcoming space where everyone – including babies, children and people – feels supported, understood and fully integrated into the experience. We want everyone to take ownership of this stage, where diversity is the force that drives our shared narrative and where every voice finds its place.
