Non Solum

Theatre The actor Sergi López, well-known for his cinema career, which includes films such as Pan’s Labyrinth or Harry, un ami qui vous veut du bien, leaves the big screen to present Non Solum, a monologue written and conceived through improvisation, together with Jorge Picó. A very simple starting point: take the audience by the hand and lead them through very different territories, make them laugh, play with situations. From this, a real dance of characters emerges, because although Sergi López is a single man, he exploits to the maximum his versatility as an actor to give us a surprising repertoire of identities. Are they diverse characters in one person or a single character with several voices within? Sergi López makes Arthur Rimbaud’s famous phrase “I is another” his own and multiplies on the stage. An existential comedy begins. In desperation, a single man is transformed into many men to respond to a question: what is going on here? And while we laugh, one of them starts laughing for no reason. Another sings a song. Another tells us about his first time with an extraterrestrial. The others become angry upon realising that, in fact, they are all the same. They travel with a woman asleep in a small box, on their way to paradise where it seems that all questions have an answer and pain only exists a little. On their way they are accompanied by some boleros, a wooden box and plastic glasses which seem fake. Their destiny is to relatively doubt everything absolutely. What’s wrong? Don’t you believe me?
