About this event
“Tres porques” is a theatre play that transforms the classic tale of “The Three Little Pigs” into a biting critique of the meat industry and rampant consumption. In this story, three friends, working sows, find themselves trapped in a clearing, confronted by the brutality of the slaughterhouse that threatens to end their lives. Through an impossible dialogue between them and the voice of a worker, the play reveals the disconnect between the joy of consumption and the harsh reality of production processes.
With a provocative approach, “Tres cerdas” poses uncomfortable questions about the morality of capitalism and society’s hypocrisy: why is a dog worth more than twenty-three million pigs? The play invites the audience to reflect on the price of their choices and the hidden cost of their food.
With wonderful staging and a well-developed script, “Tres porques” becomes a critique that confronts the viewer with the harsh reality of the modern world, from another point of view challenging animal welfare and consumption.
