Diego Anido

Diego Anido, after years of addiction to television and having done standardly badly at school, he began studying performance arts in Santiago de Compostela in 2002. The result of these beginnings is Paperboy (2004), his first show. In 2004 he moves to Barcelona with the aim of expanding his training in ‘movement’. There he develops his second piece, El Alemán (The German) in 2006 and his third, Cucaracha (Cockroach) in 2009. He also works with various collectives and creators in the city, with Raravis /Andres Corchero / Rosa Muñoz as dancer and assistant director and joins Agrupación Sr Serrano, on tour nationally and internationally.

Latest project in residence

Symon Pédícrí (2013) is about a highly talented self-taught surgeon, heir to the scientific legacy of the Pédícrí (former horse breeders), who sought to go beyond by creating a new being that would surpass his own image and likeness. Born nine months, nine days, and 16 hours after the death of another Symon Pédícrí—his brother and namesake—whose shadow he would struggle against all his life, aware that his other self had to die for his parents to conceive him.
