25 years of history
Comediants is a collective formed by actors, musicians and artists of
all stripes, thoroughly dedicated to the world of creation. Although
they are essentially known as a theatre group, the truth is that their
creative efforts have found expression through a wide range of varied
activities in the most disparate fields. Designing, records, books,
festival projects, films, costume, teaching materials and television
series are some of the different areas in which the group, either speaking
with their own voice or through others, has found its particular form
of expression.
Being blessed with a rich imagination, and working from the basis of
a truly Mediterranean sense of life as their sources of inspiration,
Comediants have, over the years, created a working method in which there
are no possible limitations. Anywhere can be their stage, anything can
be dramatised and the use of any kind of language is perfectly valid
in order to get across to the spectator, without the establishing of
any distinction of age.
So what is the aim? To establish a theatre of the senses. A theatre
of colours, smells and textures, but also a theatre of provocation.
The provocation which comes from the simplicity of the myth or tale,
set against the complexity of modern life. The provocation which proposes
optimism in the face of certain present day realities. The provocation
which proposes the rediscovery of an everyday reality in the face of
the remorseless march of modern times. And finally, the provocation
of a compromise with the present, opening people's eyes and allowing
them to see the world as an enormous house of culture and friendship,
of which we must all do our utmost to take care of before it is too
late.
