Maria Jover and Gerard Franch imagine other possible futures
This is a story born out of Maria Jover and Gerard Franch’s need to break away from the dystopian fictions proposed by power. What happens when bureaucracy acts without critical human control? When, under the pretext of efficiency and progress, great leaders decide to embark on crusades with post-fascist ideas?
Faced with this situation, and taking Hannah Arendt as a reference, the duo of creators assumes that responsibility begins with the ability to imagine. And so, from this space of encounter we call theatre, they invite the spectator to imagine other possible futures.
