Description

En RESiDÈNCiA Artists is the program of the Institut de Cultura de Barcelona (ICUB) and the Consorci d’Educació de Barcelona (CEB) that wants to promote the practice of contemporary creation in the city’s public secondary schools. The Lliure participates as mediator, with Lucia Del Greco chosen by public call.

During the 2023 - 24 academic year, Lucia Del Greco has been working with a group of ESO students from the Institut L’Alzina within the framework of the EN RESiDÈNCiA programme. The creation process, which has developed between the educational center and the Teatre Lliure, culminates in this presentation of the play.

Del Greco’s work proposal revolves around the idea of protest. It examines how neoliberalism has occupied our free time and reflects on the impact of meritocratic thought on the affections and human value of the individual. It is a question of blind obedience to authority, of the violence of the hierarchy, of the obligation to answer unwelcome questions. It is also a game and an inversion of roles between parents and children, teachers and students, adults and minors.
It takes the title of a phrase by Emma Goldman, an anarchist and feminist activist, who reflects on the importance of freedom and personal expression to foster critical and revolutionary thinking

A project carried out within the framework of the 15th edition of Artists EN RESiDÈNCiA in the institutes of Barcelona, a programme of the Institut de Cultura de Barcelona and the Consorci d'Educació de Barcelona, devised in cooperation with the A Bao A Qu Association.
Lucia Del Greco’s residence at the Institut L'Alzina has been curated and coordinated by the Teatre Lliure.

Lucia del Greco’s residence is mentored by Chilean stage director Marco Layera. This support is part of the Institut Ramon Llull’s international mentoring program.

The Carlota Soldevila grants are possible thanks to the partnership with the Fundació Banc Sabadell.
