SYNOPSIS

In order to control a draught animal it is necessary to attach straps to its head, so that it can be steered and guided. The martingale is only one of these straps, the most imperceptible of all the halters, the one that prevents the cavalry from raising its head too high. And if I tell you that only flour, eggs and milk make good dough, will you tell me that it has to be cooked with love or that you have to hit the dough very hard to make it soft?.

A show about the information society and, particularly, about the effects of media manipulation.
What role does fear play in our daily lives? What kind of reckless being might we become?

A research work where poetry, performing arts, philosophy and life intertwine in the layers that must been carefully unraveled.

Fear, media historical or social manipulation, the desire to face that decision that paralyses us,
the desire to be courageous to take risks. It affects us all, regardless of our age, country or sex.

… It confirms the excellence of this theatre company that knows how to create shows of powerful social content and great aesthetic beauty…

Nel diago. Cartelera turia

The result of a combination of their texts, the staging and the performance invites the audience to reflect, laugh, cry and enjoy their theatre
