DESDÈMONA D’ALBA SARRAUTE I LES OFÈLIES. Per un treball d’anys i panys, per no haver-se rendit mai en aquesta travessia, per haver assolit un somni, per una versió d’Otel·lo de William Shakespeare amb molt de circ i molt actual, per un excel·lent treball escenogràfic i una brillant dramatúrgia. I perquè reivindica el paper de les dones i ho fa amb un llenguatge fresc, desinhibit i molt coral.
BEST CIRCUS THEATER SHOW. DESDÈMONA D’ALBA SARRAUTE I LES OFÈLIES. For a work of years and locks, for never having surrendered on this journey, for having achieved a dream, for a version of William Shakespeare’s Othello with a lot of circus and very actual, for an excellent stage work and brilliant dramaturgy. And because it vindicates the role of women and does so with fresh, uninhibited and very choral language.
