The Formentera Office of Culture is pleased to report that next Saturday 26 March, Formentera will welcome Sabates Noves, the final instalment of the first four-month period of L'Illa a Escena 2022. Tian Gombau and the L'Home Dibuixat troupe will perform their offering of object theatre at 6.00pm in the Sala de Cultura (Cinema).

Sabates Noves is a 35-minute production for children three and up and families. After the show, the troupe will speak about their creative process and shine a light on the techniques employed in handling objects and puppets.

This show was written and directed by Jordi Palet i Puig. Tian Gombau is the actor-handler who brings to life boxes and shoes. The production is simple and minimalist, but it conveys a valuable message: we all grow. Kids will discover the world around them as a boy, new shoes in hand, recounts his adventure, growing up as he and his shoes accumulate experiences. Adults will relive their childhood through popular songs, the passing of time and the connection with nature.
