Cor dels Amants (Catalonia)
'Lovers’ Choir', by Tiago Rodrigues, is a lyrical narrative where a young couple recounts, in two voices, the life-or-death situation they are experiencing when one of them can no longer breathe. Simultaneously, the two actors/lovers present slightly different versions of the same events, celebrating the vital force of love when everything else is called into question, and normality becomes unreachable.
Tiago Rodrigues is going back to 'Lovers’ Choir', his first text from 2007: a polyphonic piece about a couple and the effects of the passage of time. The show was relaunched in 2021, in a production of Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord in Paris, and now is presented in Spain, in a production by Teatre Lliure, featuring Joan Carreras (or Ernest Villegas) and Marta Marco.
