Cometa
Roser López Espinosa - Vorpommern tanzt an / from 19h / Camp Deulosal - Es Pujolet

Cometa is a performance for children from 6 to 10 years old and their families.

On a space shuttle, helmet in hand, a cosmonaut. Cometa is an unexpected traveler who invites us, through her curiosity and discoveries, to look at our surroundings with fresh eyes, with the eyes of a child. With her, we will embark on a galactic adventure where we rediscover and marvel at the force of gravity, the infinite possibilities of movement and the power of empathy. Geometry, play and the speed of light. The universe, imagination and interstellar travel.
