SYNOPSIS
La Mula transforms the stage into a space of visual and philosophical game, where the text becomes the absolute protagonist: it speaks to us, accompanies us, manipulates us... and reveals how words shape the way we think, love, dominate, or exist.
With humor and a staging full of visual wit, the piece invites us to explore both the power and fragility of language, urging us to question our role within the narratives that surround us.
The company offers a lucid reflection on the power of the word.
Through a vibrant, ironic, and visually striking scenography, the play becomes a living device that overflows traditional theatricality and reminds us— with an unsettling smile— that, as in this synopsis, there is always a text between us and reality.
WHAT DID THE CRITICS SAY?
LA MULA AT VINTERLYS FESTIVAL
A very ambitious project, yet at the same time realistic and absolutely modest.
It is this contradiction—or the alternation between seriousness and playful, humorous expression—that makes this piece so exciting.
The production is technically impressive and highly playful, both in its form and content.
A sort of humorous and playful user guide to existence.
