An electronic opera based on one of the most emblematic texts of Catalan literature.
Infanticida is the cry of a victim who everyone considers a criminal. A piece that transforms a very powerful monologue by Caterina Albert / Víctor Català into an electronic opera. A small format musical with original music by Clara Peya that conveys the anguish, guilt and suffering of the main character.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
After the publication of La Infanticida (Jocs Florals d'Olot award 1898) and the uproar over the author being a woman, the jury asked Caterina Albert to soften some aspects of the monologue, lowering the harshness of her words, to be read at the awards ceremony without offending sensibilities. Albert refused and did not collect the award. After that event, she increasingly wrote under the pseudonym of Víctor Català. La Infanticida was not premiered until sixty years after it was written.
Infanticida is about a woman trying to find a crack of light in a dark and desolate world. Infanticida is a cry in the form of a song. The monologue gives a voice to a woman who had to silence her own to be free as an artist.
Neus Pàmies, actress, and Marc Angelet, director of the show.
