Culture and free time. Temporada Alta presents an autumn programme of seven performing arts shows in Barcelona with the support of the Catalan government and Barcelona City Council.
Created by Temporada Alta and with the collaboration of the Catalan government and Barcelona City Council, this festival brings a programme of seven shows, with theatre, dance and contemporary creation at six city theatres between 21 October and 15 November.
Barcelona’s usual range of autumn options will see a selection of top-class stage productions added over three weeks with Flaix de tardor – BCN, a new initiative with a first edition featuring artists from Argentina, Belgium, Switzerland, UK, Italy and Germany. Participants include Alain Platel, Romina Paula, Gabriel Chamé, François Gremaud, Tim Etchells, Toni Servillo, William Forsyth and Thomas Hauert.
These types of shows can be enjoyed in the summer thanks to the international programme of the Grec festival, and will now have continuity in the autumn with new productions from Temporada Alta, with the support of the Catalan government and the City Council, and offered around six city theatres: the Teatre Lliure, the Biblioteca Nacional de Catalunya, the Fundació Joan Brossa, the Villarroel, the Teatre Goya and the Mercat de les Flors.
Plays planned for the first edition of ‘Flaix de tardor’ include El tiempo todo entero, a free revision of El zoo de vidre by Tennessee Williams, from Argentina’s Romina Paula, premiered over fifteen years ago and back for three days at the Teatre Lliure, and Medida por Medida (La culpa es tuya) by the Argentinian director and actor Gabrial Chamé Buendia, based on the play of the same name by William Shakespeare and on at La Villarroel.
A dance classic, Alain Platel, will be at the festival with his classic Coup Fatal, staged by Comédie de Genève, while Germany’s Dresden Frankfurt Dance Company will be offering a double programme with two pieces by the choreographers William Forsythe and Thomas Hauert, which can be seen at the Mercat de les Flors in three functions with Ioannis Mandafounis as the director.
Also performing in Barcelona will be Toni Servillo, an Italian actor who will be working with the Piccolo Teatro de Milano Le voci di Dante to offer a text from Giuseppe Montesano at the Teatre Goya, representing a full immersion into the legacy of Dante Alighieri.
You can check the full programme and purchase tickets on the new ‘Flaix de tardor’ festival website from 13 June.
