JORDI CORTÉS / DAMIÁN MUÑOZ

This piece is about the reunion of two old friends who used to be like brothers, after forty years of physical and spiritual separation. Both want to solve a past conflict that forced them apart and now they find themselves compelled to face their demons once and for all. A duel without weapons where the two men are both the hunter and the hunted. According to Márai himself, “it is odd but in Hungarian the words ölés and ölelés, ‘killing’ and ‘embrace’, resemble each other and have the same root…” Following a long tour performing all over the world, we can once again enjoy this multiple award-winning show.
