Melancoholemia (Vida de Mamarracho)
Performance by Antón Reixa

Thursday 9 June, 9 pm
Patio of La Virreina
Ticket reservation: coordinacio@artslibris.cat

A performance in which the author, Antón Reixa, turns his book with the same title into a show.

The public fictionalizes those attending a visit to a mental institution in an “open house” day. The actor represents the patient in charge of welcoming them, "telling them something or doing something like a conference". From the stage, in dialogue with a screen, the actor tells the life of a certain “Mamarracho Person”. The actor/author is too insistent that the story is not autobiographical.
