📖 The Artist's Dilemma Against Market Rules

Blending comedy and drama, La piedra delves into the vulnerability of creators caught within institutional gears. Echoing Ortega y Gasset's philosophy on people and their circumstances, the narrative examines creative freedom, censorship, self-censorship, and the ethical struggles behind modern art.

The performance questions whether established industry rules are truly unmovable or merely parts of an alterable game. Or perhaps it remains just an evocative tale of a man searching for a stone.

🎭 Creative Team and Microescena

Written and staged by Alexandra Nicod, the production features assistant director and producer Dolores Garayalde (Eunice Producciones). The cast includes stage movement specialist Esther Acevedo and actor Carles Moreu, both seasoned performers with extensive backgrounds at institutions such as Spain's Centro Dramático Nacional.

✨ A compelling theatrical reflection on creative freedom and the true essence of art.
