The 2027 cultural season in Olot is set to feature three major theatrical productions: Morning sun, by Simon Stephens, La truita, by Baptiste Amann, and La tercera fuga, by Victoria Szpunberg. The musical programme will highlight performances by Judit Neddermann, the Orquesta de Músicas de Raíz de Cataluña, and a reinterpretation of Joan Manuel Serrat's work by Jofre Bardagí.
The theatrical season will kick off with Morning sun, a production by Sixto Paz and La Villarroel that transports the audience to New York. The story follows three women as they navigate their joys, mysteries, and defeats, gradually feeling invisible. Míriam Iscla, Anna Güell, and Raquel Ferri will portray the protagonists under the direction of Pau Roca.
February will see the staging of La truita, a theatrical piece by Bitó and the Grec, centred around an anniversary meal that sparks discussions on love, family, death, universal values, and personal convictions. The cast includes notable actors such as Emma Vilarasau, Maria Rodríguez, and Jordi Boixaderas.
Finally, audiences can look forward to La tercera fuga, an original work by contemporary Catalan author Victoria Szpunberg, in collaboration with Albert Pijuan. Based on Szpunberg's family history, the play follows the tumultuous journey of three generations affected by exile, set across three countries in different decades: Ukraine in 1920, Buenos Aires in 1970, and Barcelona in 2020. This production will be presented on 7 May in Olot as part of the TNC on tour.
In terms of music, Jofre Bardagí will launch the season on 19 February with an emotional journey through Serrat's discography. Bardagí aims to reinterpret Serrat's work with a contemporary and personal approach, moving away from mere homage to explore new soundscapes.
The musical offerings will continue at the Teatre Principal de Olot with Judit Neddermann, who will perform alongside GIO Symphonia on 9 April, celebrating ten years of her career with a fresh format while maintaining her signature repertoire focused on life and love.
On 25 April, the Orquesta de Músicas de Raíz de Cataluña, comprising thirty-four musicians, will draw from Pau Casals' legacy to deliver a poetic musical journey addressing contemporary challenges, advocating for human dignity, peace, and human rights.
