ABOUT TRAMANT TEATRE

The company Tramant Teatre was born in Cullera, Valencia, Spain, in 2004, with the aim of creating a space for scenic creation, always based on humor. Since then, it has sought to awaken the public's capacity for reflection. In his creations he uses the most varied scenic techniques: actor's theatre, object theatre, puppetry, shadows, text, gesture and singing. Thus, the company found, little by little, a different language, an aesthetic and an identity of its own, a way to create illusions, to tell stories and to talk about feelings and emotions. Enriched by the experience of continuous walking through all types of audiences and stages, with more than seven hundred presentations that consolidate the work.
