Carmen Polo, Franco’s wife, becomes the perfect excuse to talk about the legacy that Francoist morality has left us in Spain, and above all, to talk about hunts; Carmen’s hunts for her necklaces, Franco’s hunt for Carmen, the hunts organized by the upper classes, and the far-right’s hunts targeting vulnerable people. A journey and a highly subjective perspective on what might have been or could have been.

This project invites the audience to step into a new version of the iconic Spanish gossip magazine ¡HOLA!, but this time with the aim of offering other points of view on a narrative that is tainted and riddled with cracks.

Hermanas Picohueso, we are a ramshackle galaxy of lost objects floating over the Mediterranean. Our expeditions are led by Gal·la Peire Camps and Lluki Portas, always accompanied by our stable team in production, administration, communication, diffusion, and technical work, consisting of Aina Juanet, Marc Homar, Cintia de Luis and Gypsy Nel·lo, with Diego Ingold as a satellite.
Since 2016 we have been dedicated to generating stage creation projects, working on research and exploration of contemporary stage formats, delving into the depths of human life, kitsch debris, worn-out archival material and the intellectual manure floating among us, in an attempt to answer impossible questions—often extracting unsatisfactory or entirely erroneous responses.
Freakism, reflection and rage are the three hashtags embroidered on our spacesuits made from recycled cans and materials found on the street, as we explore diverse artistic techniques and paths that question the limits of theatricality. We surround ourselves with top professionals who bring quality to our projects, support us in our search for new dramaturgies, and help us integrate digital tools into the stage arts.
