This is the story of an encounter and an unlikely friendship between a gull and a cat. With messages as important as the conservation of the environment and the main values that pass between Men, altruism and friendship.
Turning this wonderful work into dramatic text was a wish of the director and the Company for some time. Delayed twice for reasons of timing has finally come the time to bring to the scene this tale so full of good messages. A story that softens and makes us laugh.
This show is complex and diversified in its techniques, such as videomapping or shadow theater, hence the need to resort to a crowdfunding campaign to help us realize this dream.
