“The audience rediscover the city, full of installations which change their perception of what is daily and ordinary.

Using a map, they follow a rou- te which is both critical and en- tertaining which reflects on the dehumanisation of society.”

Imagine that you arrive in the city and you find a sign with a red logo with 2 letter Cs joined up.... or perhaps it’s a mask .... What does it mean?

Well, it represents everything related to ‘Against the city’, a collaboration between the architect Jordi Queralt and the drama- tist Esteve Soler to make us reflect on how much our cities have become dehumani- sed.

This is exactly the subject of the 3 plays which we have taken as our basis. (Against progress, Against Love and Against Demo- cracy). These 3 texts have been translated into 12 languages and brought to the stage by more than 50 directors around the world and have won prizes such as the Catalan Serra d’Or and the French Godot.

It is as if we had transposed these works from Arthur Miller territory to Banksy’s with the city streets becoming a stage for reflecting on our most cherished values and at the same time an entertaining, provocative place which stimula- tes the involvement of all who walk there.

Our audience become actors: outside in the street, in a thematic exhibition and most of all in a virtual world, with a website which is both accessible and participatory, which expands and becomes a space for sharing the experience, with a broad interconnection with social net- works.
