Love or hate? Our world depends on the direction that we take

11 to 15 december 2019

The stage at the Arriaga looks forward to welcoming the great Carmen Maura who, appearing alongside Félix Gómez, will be performing in a play that examines the following premise: “What makes us human?” For Amelia (Carmen Maura), a mother who has been wounded deep in her soul, what makes us human is our ability to feel the pain of others as if it were our own. That sets us apart from the beasts.

When Amelia and Ramon (Dafnis Balduz) meet, they can choose to: inflict even greater damage on themselves or recognise themselves in the pain of the other so as not to let the beasts win. In the face of an indiscriminate attack we are all victims and we face the same crossroads: love or hate? Our world depends on the direction that we take.
