Genre: THEATRE

Language: Catalan and Spanish

THE SHOW

What will you find in this show? A shantytown burning down. Funky music, played loud. The mortgage crisis. Victorian England. Nests, dens, caves and mansions. 150,000 foreclosures in 2012. A smiling banker. The horror. Homesickness. Lots of live film. Tahitian paradises. The right to a home. The right to air conditioning. The right to a plasma television. And Marlon Brando playing the role of John Brickman, the visionary developer who inspired the first mortgage system in history. This is a stage biopic, not only about this magnate, but also about the restless, rebellious actor who spent his life seeking a home that he never found. Come, see how the cast build a house to a funky rhythm, and how its walls are filled with images, dreams and nightmares.
