Li diuen mar

Since 2011, Teatre Tantarantana, in cooperation with the choreographer Constanza Brncic and the playwright Albert Tola, has promoted an initiative aimed, at first, exclusively at students in El Raval neighbourhood, but which gradually wove a network of sympathies amongst these young people and adults, who share similar and unique artistic and social experiences. Word, dance and music become shared territory, a meeting place for a large cast of performers from different backgrounds, who speak different languages and are not even from the same generation, but even so can take part in a shared creative project. Li diuen mar (“They Call It the Sea”) is the title of the work produced this year, directed by Constanza Brncic Monsegur, with dramaturgy and texts by Albert Tola and music by Nuno Rebelo. This is a work about solitary and collective journeys both real and interior, a project that brought together both pupils and teachers at Milà i Fontanals and Consell de Cent secondary schools, organisers and participants in the Room 1418 season of activities (CCCB-MACBA), senior citizens recruited thanks to the TotRaval association and the Arrels Foundation, and a choir taking part in the Clavé XXI project (Palau de la Música Catalana).
