📖 An immersive journey into the subconscious

Based on a real experience, the production fuses theatre, music, and lighting design to plunge the audience into a unique sensory experience. The protagonist becomes trapped in a stalled elevator, turning that suspended space into an intimate journey through her subconscious.

Within this confinement, she confronts her fears, her memories, and a dark presence that forces her to face herself. Throughout the journey, she shares moments with her friends, moving together across humour, anger, fragility, and hope.

🎭 Fábrica de Brujas and the creative team

Fábrica de Brujas stages this premiere alongside a dedicated technical team: lighting design by Tomás Ezquerra, costume design by Ainhoa Areitio, musical production by Rubén G. Mateos, external eye by Matxalen de Pedro, and communication by Eunate Serrano.

ℹ️ Good to know: On November 18, the performance is staged in Basque.

✨ An intense theatrical exploration of self-discovery and resilience.
