In this production of Antonia Canyelles' poetic work, the Estudi Zero company works with an open approach, portraying a wide selection of her poetry collection with wide-ranging resources. A literary research process in different fields: the texts, the meanings, the transgressive and anti-system ideas, her anti-fascism, and anti-clericalism, daring feminism, a radical Catalanism, an anti-monarchist republican side. A game of intense sensations, the different temperatures, the word party also in its playful, festive, and sensual side. A trickle of deep emotions, with contradictions, Life and Death, anguish, anger. A punch on the tolerant conventions table. An unprecedented ability to synthesise, a constant surprise, a sweetness combined with bitterness, pleasure, and frustration. The everyday, the most mundane objects, with the extraordinary. Near and far nature, domestic and wild animals, exotic landscapes and the usual.

A Teatre Principal with Estudi Zero co-production.
