La mort i la primavera

A fantasy of images, gestures and bodies based on Mercè Rodoreda's most enigmatic novel

The dance company La Veronal returns to the TNC to present a large format show based on Mercè Rodoreda’s La mort i la primavera.

Marcos Morau and La Veronal, a dance company of great international scope and prestige, explore Rodoreda’s dark imaginary to construct an allegory about creative freedom, social commitment, and art as salvation and refuge.

A novel both dark and beautiful, enigmatic and universal, rebellious and fatalistic, with a universe between the human and the sacred, the spiritual and the animal. A piece that expresses sadness and anger, but also resistance.

La mort i la primavera will open the season at the Sala Gran after its premiere at the Venice Biennale.
