The play
A wanderer, with the help of very simple objects, narrates the story of a lake in which a stork is fishing. The wanderer believes that he is the stork. Is he insane? He sings passionately: "I am a wandering bird who often migrates. As long as I have a single feather on my wings, I’ll by flying”.
The show narrates the journey in the soul of the puppet and underlines the relationship between the puppet and the puppeteer. The music is composed by Alberto Gambino. The play received the Sam Miguel award for being the best play performed at the Festival de Tarrega.

The company
In 2017 we will celebrate 40 years of touring around with our puppets, performing in streets, theaters, circus tents and lots of other odd spaces. We perform for all ages! For children who we think as sensitive human beings and for adults who still keep some space for tenderness and playing in their hearts. We’ve travelled in many countries and throughout Spain and we’ve won many awards for our work. We performed in Guggenheim Museum of New York and in Sao Paolo. Out of love, we organized festivals in jails and hospitals. We consider ourselves very lucky for having such a nice occupation and spectators who are smart and happy.
