Sáhara, the Boat of the Desert

A poetic homage to the popular puppeteer. From the discovery of Pedro Vidal's diary, a young artist reconstructs his story and, behind his mask, brings his memories to life through the device of “theater within the theater”. The original “Teatro de la Bicicleta”, by the old puppeteer, proposes shifts in perspective for the deconstruction of the puppeteer's craft.

Bailando los Clasicos is a dance show to celebrate Dance Day, which transcends the stage to become an unforgettable social and aesthetic gathering. Under the majestic structure of Mozart's Symphony No. 41, the dance interweaves with the voices of a soprano and a tenor, guiding this sensory journey. Between vibrant movements and a costume that brings the music to life, the aim is to open a space for delight and emotion. Come to experience a renewed classic; come to gift yourself that breath your soul needs.

His two children, now independent, visit him frequently with the aim of pulling him out of his confinement. At the same time, Sofía Timmerman appears, a woman belonging to the so-called “grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo”, who start a new campaign to locate the children who were stolen during the military dictatorship of General Videla, in the late 1970s. Both stories intertwine and converge, drastically changing the lives of their protagonists.
