Tickets coming 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.
