📖 A life autopsy on masculine identity

The play stems from a personal experience that turns collective, addressing the construction and deconstruction of what it means to be a man. On stage, a protagonist in his forties carries out a personal life autopsy alongside his alter ego, Barbie.

Through this retrospective journey, the piece unpacks his childhood, adolescence, and adulthood, examining the influence of teachers, his father, grandfathers, friends, and other male figures. The performance delves into how masculinity is shaped from an early age and questions societal assumptions about identity.

The company describes the piece as brave, thoughtful, and necessary, designed to challenge spectators and prompt them to reconsider their own certainties.

Hosted within the Literaktum 2026 programme, this performance brings a critical theatrical exploration of social conditioning to the Lugaritz cultural center.

✨ A powerful theatrical invitation to reflect on the meaning of modern masculinity.
