La Niña Barro

(2014)

A meditative and intimate piece of theatre that activates all the senses. Based on a collection of over 20 poems by Spanish writer Marta Massé, the show invites the audience to share the journey of a girl made of mud who struggles to understand her feelings about herself and the connections she has with earth, nature, life, and love, combining spoken word, music, and physical theatre.

The piece premiered at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2014, when it was censored by the venue due to its use of non-sexual nudity. It has since toured around Spain, Brazil, Uruguay, and the USA, winning the Impact Award at the 5^th Small-Scale Theatre Festival in Miami and making the cover of the Godoff magazine in Madrid, a publication specialised in dance and physical theatre.
