Roger Bernat
A public space, a group of people, a voice in the headset asking questions, instructions, suggestions. Some are ironic, innocent, others more intimate and important. Who are these people? Where do they come from? Are they spectators or actors? What relationship unites them?
Domini Públic is a game about life, almost a life-size box game where the spectators are not mere pawns but become the protagonists of a story that director Bernat skilfully orchestrates. A sociological investigation in three dimensions on themes that are dear to us and in which we are protagonists, without constraints and prefixed roles.
For the first time in Milan, Domini Públic has toured the world and is a true classic of urban performance.
In Italian. Minimum age for headphones: 14.
Will also take place in case of rain.
The performance will be held at Castello Sforzesco,
Cortile della Rocchetta (Piazza Castello – MM1 Cairoli)
Please arrive with your ID 10 minutes before the start of the performance to collect your headphones.

FOCUS CATALOGNA
Catalan avant-garde on stage
The PLAY-K(ei) Who are we? season closes 2016 with the now customary European appointment, dedicated this year to CATALONIA. A rich and lively cultural panorama, a multiform theatrical scene, with peaks of excellence in very different disciplines, from contemporary circus to urban performance.
An autonomous region with a strong identity, Catalonia is today both an example of the protection of identities and a mirror of the many trends towards independence in Europe. It is therefore a region that represents a stimulus for investigation, leading to the identification of leading groups on the performance scene and a reflection on the political and cultural developments of an increasingly complex and fragile Europe.
Can the protection of identities be a guarantee of artistic freedom? Can the aspiration for local economic and political independence exist within a Europeanist vision?
ZONA K chooses some of the most representative and innovative artists, whose work is able to speak about contemporary reality and the contemporary world.
At the same time, in a parallelism between the actuality of the present and the avant-garde of the past, it investigates the Spanish Civil War on its 80th anniversary, through the eyes of artists who recounted their present.
