THE LIGHTS
“The balance cannot be more positive, the result is so joyful and attractive. Eva and María, on stage have a freshness and a vitality that is contagious, opening the audiences mind to curiosity and desire leading them to the true source in life”. Luis Muñoz Díez – Tarántula, Revista Cultural”.
Premiered at PKMÑ and performed at The Imparables Festival 2016 in Nave 73, Madrid (Spain).
We wanted to talk about love as it has so much relevance at our age, and also to talk about darkness which is so remote. We wanted to talk about exhaustion which is so present in everyday life, but also to talk about the other person, because we were creating a piece with them. We wanted to talk about fear, the futile attempt, the search for identity and my mum’s lentil soup. Most of all, we wanted to talk about the experience of not winning a karaoke kit to sing Mari Trini’s hits. We wanted to talk about to talk about all this, finding each other in the darkness, while looking for THE LIGHTS.
