Anti-magie, Juan Bescos

What enigmatic and secret realm could survive our teenage years? How do we keep access to it? Juan Bescós opts for what he calls "anti-magie": an efficacy of the invisible that is at once a collective utopia, the dream of vulnerable drama-queen heroines, and a way to defy the fundamental laws of existence. In four parts, the play unfolds in the bedroom of a sad teenager wishing to transform the private space of domestication into a collective space of experimentation. Anti-Magie offers a joyful and deviant fantasy, borrowing as much from death metal as from Plato's allegory of the cave, to open dizzying portals.
