When the wretched ones speak, everything shakes
The TNC premieres its first play by Maxim Gorky, writer, playwright, politician and one of the most influential figures of early 20th century Russian literature. Premiered in Moscow in 1902 and directed by Stanislavski, The Lower Depths broke through the theatre panorama of Russia and Europe as one of the most radical and avant-garde developments of the time. The piece takes a revolutionary leap and frankly portrays characters and life from the most deprived layers of urban society. For the occasion, Carme Portaceli and Albert Tola have created a dramaturgy that brings Els baixos fons (The Lower Depths) to a more current time and space.
