📖 Canine dialogue and social reflection

In this piece, Cipión and Berganza gain the ability to speak, turning into keen observers of human behaviour. Through their exchanges, they uncover the contradictions, flaws, and daily vices of our lives.

Voice and language form the heart of a production that examines who holds the right to speak the truth and how justice, falsehood, and morality are shaped. The show weaves tradition with modernity through incisive writing.
