The work reflects on the patriarchal legacy and women's freedom, posing questions about empathy and tolerance in contemporary society. The production, directed by Oskaras Koršunovas, premieres in Barcelona with his company, exploring the duality between saint and sinner through Eglė Jackaitė's performance. The show takes place at La Capella, C/ Hospital 56, Barcelona. Tickets from €28.00.

The venue
La Capella
Raval. Emerging creation in the hospital's historic nave.
La Capella, at Carrer de l'Hospital, 56, is housed within the structure of the old Hospital de la Santa Creu, founded in 1401. This space, originally a chapel consecrated around 1440, blends Ciutat Vella's architectural heritage with artistic avant-garde. Managed by the Institut de Cultura de Barcelona (ICUB), La Capella is a benchmark for emerging creation, with "BCN Producció" as its main program. Its halls host innovative proposals, setting a cultural pulse in the vibrant Raval neighborhood.
