Quelonia y el mar ( Quelonia and the sea) is a story in the form of a song that speaks of friendship and survival, of the search for one’s own place in a world where what benefits some can harm others and vice versa.
The little turtle is born one moonless night on the beach. Its instinct tells it to follow the reflection of the stars on the water to reach the sea, but, confused by the lights of the city, the little turtle unknowingly enters a completely different world.
A tender and funny story told backstage in a theatre, spun through live music and object theatre.

GORAKADA

The origin of Gorakada dates back to 1987.
GORAKADA has always tried to surround itself with a team of collaborators closely linked to the world of theatre and education. They stand out for their teamwork
and for the exchange of ideas and proposals, which is a condition for continuing to evolve. From teamwork arises debate and reflection, which have led to the different GORAKADA shows moving across different styles, registers, manipulation techniques, aesthetics and staging. The company’s work has been awarded several prizes.
