Last project in residence

No puc arrencar-me el cap (2020) is a celebration of the rest that is denied to us and a party (above all, a party) of the care and affection that people give to one another to allow ourselves this rest. Because without the structures that let us let go without fearing any threat, that allow us to enjoy rest without feeling guilty, that let us breathe the necessary pauses, this rest will not be possible. Alba Pujol is in charge of leading this commission by L’Auditori, a hybrid scene supported by a stellar team. Who or what deprives us of rest? Who watches over our daily rest? What rituals help us in the journey from wakefulness to sleep? An adult rocking a child, preparing them through music, words, and movement for the journey into the unconscious; it is a brutal act of love. But what happens when we are adults? Where is that embrace, that comfort, that letting oneself fall into another person’s arms to awaken within ourselves?
