TRESC is working with the Grec Festival 2023 to offer spectators informal and interesting moments with the main characters from various theatre, dance and music shows featured in the programme. The idea is to encourage the general public to connect with some of the most interesting productions from the festival programme.
The planned meetings are:
La Ludwig Band
Date: Monday, 12 June
Venue: El Maldà
A unique meeting between La Ludwig Band, one of the most interesting bands on the current Catalan scene, who will be making their first appearance on a Teatre Grec stage for one of their very few performances this summer with one of the most iconic of Catalan groups: the Companyia Elèctrica Dharma. A relaxed and easy-going discussion about the concert by La Ludwig at the Teatre Grec, reflecting on the comparison between two historical moments from long ago and, at the same time, close to these two bands from our country.

La plaça del Diamant
Date: Saturday, 8 July
Venue: Plaça del Diamant
The Gràcia neighbourhood is another of the protagonists in the novel La plaça del Diamant, by Mercè Rodoreda, providing a unique and authentic setting for the story of the main character. To mark the stage adaptation being presented at the Grec, this activity invites spectators to take a stroll around the streets of the Gràcia neighbourhood with Literat Tours, along with the stage director Carlota Subirós and the two main performers, Paula Jornet and Lurdes Barba. A unique and different way of discovering this singular version of La plaça del Diamant, with Colometas from very different generations and with very different experiences.
