📖 Breaking theatrical boundaries

This piece reflects scenic research focused on feminist aesthetics, traversing "Cuir camp" and "Lesbian camp". By blending dance, theatre, and audiovisual elements, the performance explores how bodies discover that alternative ways of living are possible beyond the dominant system.

The work investigates the physical body as matter that seeks to reclaim itself, questioning the established heteronormative framework regarding sex, gender, and kinship.

👥 Carmen Rojas and Karelis Zambrano

Founded in Madrid in 2023, this emerging collective combines dance, theatre, and performance to create spaces for collective reflection. "Las almejas que hablan" is their first group production, awarded and recognized as a finalist at the 38th Certamen Coreográfico de Madrid, and featured in festivals such as Letraherida, La Sub25, and ARTEFACTO in La Rioja.

ℹ️ Good to know: Recommended for audiences aged 12 and over.

✨ A bold contemporary performance celebrating interdisciplinary stage dialogue in Usera.
