Performance / Live Art / Argos Teatro / Centro Cultural La Llave
In a setting that might be a shop window, two characters arrange the spaces. They establish a relationship through non-verbal language, through which they are able to tell stories. Various situations arise as they dress mannequins, allowing the two actors to play and interact. The audience's gaze is free to wander, allowing them to recognize, interpret, and assign personal meaning to these stories. The performance allows children to consider the concept of family, encouraging reflection and posing questions without providing easy answers. It gives the audience an opportunity to consider their perspectives, as well as other possible realities. Without providing straightforward answers, we consider questions such as: What is a family? Does a family mean having children? Does a family mean having a mom and a dad? Does a family have to live in the same place?

About the Artists

Andrea Buzzetti: In 2002 he became a member of La Baracca, where he began as a lighting technician, and later worked as an actor. He soon started presenting several shows on a national and international level, displaying an immediate interest and inclination towards the youngest audiences (1-4 years old). Thanks to his double professional profile, in 2007 he contributed to the creation of the project 'Theatre and Light,' centered on the interaction between the world of lighting and theatre for children. In 2014 he started an artistic line of shows for early childhood that privileges movement over words. Since 2017 he has been a director of shows for early years, both for La Baracca and on an international level. He leads masterclasses for artists interested in working for children.
