Event
Flaix de Tardor festival
Autumn arrives and Barcelona changes its skin. Between dry leaves and dim lights, Flaix de Tardor is born, a festival that bursts in powerfully to show that the international stage is not only a summer affair. From 21 October to 15 November, seven shows selected with a scalpel by Temporada Alta take over the city's theatres as if they were their own.

About this event
It is not an exhibition; it is a statement of intent. Here are Toni Servillo and the Piccolo Teatro di Milano giving voice to Dante as if the paper were burning; Gabriel Chamé Buendia, a key figure in South American theatre, taking Shakespeare into the realm of physical comedy and biting satire; and Romain Daroles in a Phèdre! that transforms myth into laughter and thought in equal measure.
Dance enters the scene without asking permission: Alain Platel shakes the stage with Coup Fatal, a Baroque-Congolese celebration that is pure musical vertigo; and the Dresden Frankfurt Dance Company puts body and technique at the service of emotion with pieces by Forsythe and Hauert.
Amid the autumn routine, this festival arrives with the force of the unexpected and the beauty of the unrepeatable. Because the international stage also deserves its own equinox.
