📖 The piece

With her hands, projections, mirror illusions and object theatre, LeBlanc creates a parade of odd, outsider characters in front of the audience. Everything appears on screen like a movie.

A cheeky, surprising 75-minute show, for adults only.

🎪 Festival IF 2026 at La Brossa

This is the third year of the partnership between La Brossa and IF Barcelona's Festival IF, devoted to visual, object and puppet theatre. It runs from 5 to 29 November, this time built around words losing their meaning.

🏛️ La Brossa, Centre de les Arts Lliures

The Fundació Joan Brossa is housed in La Seca, Barcelona's old royal mint in El Born, and is Barcelona's home for the 'free arts': visual theatre, object poetry, magic, performance and live arts, in the spirit of the poet it is named after. It runs exhibitions, shows and activities all season long.

ℹ️ Good to know: In English, 80% without words. Ages 14+: contains cartoonish sexual content, crude language, dark lighting and loud music.

✨ Cinema, puppets and dark humour to open the festival.
