📖 The call that no one can hear

The title refers to the unique frequency of a sound recorded over the past 35 years across the Pacific Ocean, akin to the song of a blue whale. By vibrating at 52 Hertz, its voice remains outside the normal hearing range of its species, which spans from 10 to 39 Hertz. No other whale has ever been able to hear its call, leading to the hypothesis that it may be deaf from birth.

This solitary whale becomes a metaphor for social isolation, weaving a multifaceted portrait of people enduring involuntary loneliness. Employing a non-realistic tone rich in poetic and choreographic imagery, the performance explores communication barriers and emotional disconnection.

🎭 Ados Teatroa and the creative team

The play is directed by Garbi Losada, who co-wrote the script with José Antonio Vitoria, featuring a Basque version adapted by Bego Losada. The cast brings together Joseba Apaolaza, Dorleta Urretabizkaia, Martxelo Rubio, Amaia Irazabal, and Kimetz Etxabe.

✨ An evocative theatrical journey delving into loneliness and the yearning to be heard.
