What’s being performed
Una cosa lleugera is a visual theatre piece aimed at families, created by Taller Placer in collaboration with the Escalante Centre Teatral. The show revolves around a space where physics is turned upside down: everyday objects—like a catxerulo (kite), a tent, or colourful inflatable sculptures—begin to float thanks to a special guest, air. The three performers on stage interact with these suspended forms, which eventually spill beyond the stage and mix with the audience. The result is a playful and poetic experience that invites reflection on lightness as a way to reach depth.
Who’s performing
The piece features three performers on stage, though their names aren’t specified in the sources. The fourth protagonist is air, acting as a scenic element to bring the floating objects to life. Direction is by Taller Placer, a Valencian collective known for its visual and experimental theatre proposals, in collaboration with the Escalante Centre Teatral, which specialises in performances for family audiences.
Timing and duration
The performance on 21 October 2026 is scheduled for 10:30 AM. While sources mention a duration is specified, this detail isn’t available in the extracts. The venue has a capacity of 224 seats.
Access and requirements
Una cosa lleugera is designed for family audiences, though no specific minimum age is indicated. Given its visual and playful nature, it’s likely suitable for children from age 4, following the Escalante Centre Teatral’s usual segmentation for this type of show. No prior registration is required, but arriving early is recommended to choose seating, as the performance interacts with the space near the audience.
