A pie

A robot, with a brain shape, explains to young people the difficulty of motherhood and fatherhood

'A pie' is a sound installation –produced by Temporada Alta, IVC Cultura / EACC y la Diputació de Castelló–, inhabited by music, mechatronics, drawing, theatre and sound. From an extraordinarily large brain, full of automated drawers, through sound, word, phrase, woven with sound, they will try to show and dialogue with the spectators (child and adult) about a life experience as strong as motherhood. The dramaturgy of this project has been created by groups of migrants and anonymous people.

'A pie' proposes to the audience the possibility to rediscover the scenic experience.
