The writers, musicians, dancers and video makers who make up El Conde de Torrefiel, a collective appearing in Belgium for the first time, are putting together a body of theatre work that draws its strength from confronting various disciplines with one another. In their must-see show Escenas, twelve stories come one after the other. Today’s young Europeans explore anecdotes, fantasies and traumatic experiences that highlight an insidious conflict between what they want, what they do and what they say. This discrepancy at the heart of the individual is also reflected in the staging. The words are more projected than they are spoken, and the actions are often found to be out of step with the story itself. With a great sense of the stage, El Conde de Torrefiel have created a show that ironically and with great acuity poses the question of freedom in 21st-century society, a society in which everyone wants to live according to their instincts while unwittingly being subject to the power of a global diktat they don’t understand. A portrait of an alienated generation.
