Quim, absorbed in his own thoughts, transforms the stage into a bestiary, where he himself appears as a human rooster. Various different characters take the stage as protagonists and then merge into the storyline. Always present, he will give life to each of the characters in the story, who will in turn lead us to question the human aspects of animals, the animal aspects of humans, masculinity and femininity and how they are all connected.
What is animal and what is human?
This piece exposes the unbounded strength we all have within us that connects us to our most primal selves. Transgenic bodies, handstands, acrobatics in high heels, a spoon up the nose, a cockfight and ritual dances.
Welcome to my world!
