Mucha Muchacha shall be the company’s magnum opus. What started as theoretical and practical research about women artists from the ‘Generation of the 27th’, known as Las Sinsombrero evolved into a contemporary dance project focused on the ideas of empowerment, determination, voice, participation, freedom and cooperation.
The performance is developed from force-driven movement, effort, celebration and physical exhaustion. They put 'at-risk' traditional Spanish dance's corporeality in a confrontation with contemporary dancing. The piece is their declaration of intention about movement, community, femininity and rite.
While being a young company born of Spanish dance, they felt the urge to work from a contemporary perspective, constantly in dialogue with the current framework of living arts - making them part of its perspective and its language. They seek a close relationship with the audience, pushing the borders of scenic innovation.
