Musical «Shampoo», by Barcelona Gay Men’s Chorus
«Shampoo» is much more than a musical set in a hair salon. The new Barcelona Gay Men’s Chorus production uses humour, music and emotion to address universal issues such as identity, family and the importance of accepting oneself.
About this event
The story revolves around Jacinto and Tebi, a couple who run a modern, inclusive beauty salon full of personality. Between impossible hairstyles, colourful dyes and a clientele as diverse as the neighbourhood itself, they have built a space where freedom of expression is part of everyday life. However, their adopted son, Mario, observes that universe from a certain distance and wonders whether he would fit better into a different family.
An unexpected event will change his perspective. Through a journey that mixes memories, songs and decisive encounters, Mario will discover the experiences, difficulties and achievements that have marked the life of his parents and an entire generation of the LGBTQIA+ community.
Performed by members of Barcelona Gay Men’s Chorus, «Shampoo» combines funny moments with others that are deeply emotional, building a story that celebrates diversity and the value of family ties in all their forms. Directed by Jumon Erra and with carefully crafted staging, the show invites the audience to reflect without ever losing its sense of entertainment.
A story full of music and humanity that champions the pride of being who one is and the strength of those who fight to live authentically.
