“A Nublo” tries to supe­rim­po­se two spa­ces: the the­a­ter, a clo­sed spa­ce built by and for the human being, and a val­ley, a spa­ce trans­for­med and sha­ped by geo­lo­gi­cal and atmos­p­heric con­di­ti­ons and com­ple­te­ly open, an outer space. 

Edurne Rubio and María Jerez are inte­rested in intertwi­ning the­se spa­ces, allo­wing for mee­ting points bet­ween the two worlds and thus buil­ding a tran­si­to­ry third pla­ce, ana­chro­nis­tic for being at the same time ance­stral and futu­ris­tic, a spe­cu­la­ti­ve pie­ce of sci­en­ce (-fic­ti­on). It is not about buil­ding a sce­no­grap­hy to repre­sent a natu­ral lands­ca­pe, but about loo­king at the the­a­ter as a lands­ca­pe, a pla­ce sub­ject to for­ces and events that trans­form it.

“A Nublo” is an invita­ti­on to under­stand the the­a­ter as a sen­si­ti­ve spa­ce. An eco­sy­s­tem with a spe­ci­fic topo­grap­hy and a par­ti­cu­lar machi­ne­ry that itself alrea­dy pro­du­ces. Light, sound and this machi­ne­ry are not at the ser­vi­ce of a cho­re­o­grap­hy but are the cho­re­o­grap­hy itself, for this, Edurne & Maria have wor­ked together with the light desig­ner Leticia Skrycky and the sound desig­ner Charo Calvo. 

The audien­ce is acti­ve­ly ques­ti­o­ned, it is not so much about par­ti­ci­pa­ti­on, but about being together, in the same spa­ce in a sta­te of alert, a peri­od of maxi­mum ten­si­on until the event, pre­dic­ted by une­qui­vo­cal signs, actu­al­ly occurs… or may­be not. And in that expecta­ti­on, the vie­wer is for­ced to unlearn cer­tain logics, to be ​“less human“, to enter the phe­no­me­non like some­o­ne ente­ring into an aes­the­tic expe­rien­ce, some­thing that can­not be captured.
