There's only one week left for the premiere of 'Ensayo sobre la Ceguera' (Blindness) in Teatre Tantarantana's Àtic 22. An immersive theatre play where the audience surrounds the action and takes an active part of the action itself in concrete moments. An adaptation of José Saramago's famous novel by La Coquera Teatro that will leave no one unmoved.
What is this play about?
An incomprehensible blindness plage blights the city, and the first patients are promptly isolated in an abandoned installation while the pertinent measures are taken in order to understand the disease and bring some response. Contention is needed, civilization must prevail at all means. But, what happens with all those first patients? Who will help a blinded person if the condition itself was contagious? Is it all permitted to protect the rest of humanity, even abandoning to their own fate? Live first hand the pandemic, feel the horror of seeing how human beings lose, minute after minute, all kinds of decency, of empathy. Such an opportunity to take part on the acclaimed novel by José Saramago in an immersive theatre approach by La Coquera.
