La nit just abans dels boscos

From Bernard-Marie Koltès, directed by Cyril Desclés

Unfortunately, we will not be able to see La nit just abans dels boscos this season due to logistical issues unrelated to La Perla 29. Its premiere is therefore expected to be postponed to next season.

We are always particularly keen on the possibility of opening up the space to new proposals, works in progress and international projects, specially hosting this company, but it has not been possible. Productions in the creation phase can involve changes like this. We are convinced, however, that La nit just abans dels boscos will find its moment and that we will meet again very soon.

The French director Cyril Desclés premieres at Teatre La Biblioteca Koltès’ most celebrated and poetic monologue, performed in Catalan by Marc Garcia Coté, described as “a meeting with an angel amid all this mess.”

Synopsis

A man tries to remember, with all the words he can find, a stranger he approaches one night, on a lonely corner. He tells him about his world, about a neighborhood where it always rains, where we are foreigners, where we no longer work. He tells him about everything, and about love, in that way one can only do with a stranger like him: a child, perhaps, silent, motionless.
