Free Varietes in Segovia

A special night in a magic place

Two hours before the show had begun there were almost no free seats, we could feel that it would be a very especial night. At 10pm COSTRINI, the presenter, inaugurated what was about to be a night full of complicity and fun. After the performance of the italian humourist MARCO CAROLEI and the Catalan companie CANE MONDO with its acid humour, FLAMING BUTTERFLIES closed the programm with their spectacular skills in the manipulation of fire. Read what the press said.




Catalan Parade in Doetinchem

Eight thousand people enjoyed the traditional Catalan parade.

Free Art and Gog i Magog presented for the first time in Holland a Catalan Parade. Big Headed men, giants, dragons and popular Catalan music dancers performed in front of 8.000 walking along the streets of Doetinchem welcoming 60 Catalan artists who travelled there to offer the best of their art and culture.
The language was not a problem for the 25 volunteers from Holland who integrated themselves in a 100%.

Ziya Azazi (Turkey)

Sufi dance, between the ancestral and contemporaneus

His recent performances in Barcelona provoked a cocktail of feelings that still remain in the memory of those who participated in the show-ritual interpreted by the young coreographer and dancer Ziya Azazi. A mix of plastical beauty and ritual movement.
Ziya will perform in the Festival of Sueca on the 17th September, on the 24th September in a Pati Free in Logroño and on the 4th October in the Theatre Fair of Huesca. Don't miss it!
