The Mostra Igualada has announced this morning the winners of its 34th edition, in which 30 shows were performed for all audiences between March 30 and April 2. The audience award has recognized the magic show Kariguri, from the Giramagic company; and the jury has awarded the proposals of the companies Lazuz Company, Ortiga, Inspira Teatre and Binomi.
The magic proposal of the Giramagic company, Kariguri, captivated the public of the Mostra Igualada, so much so that they have made it the winner of this edition. It is a show of magic, puppets, masks, clowns and physical theater, united in an imaginative landscape, sound, visual and without text.
It has been the attendees of the fair, professionals and the general public, who have voted anonymously in this category. After her victory, Kariguri can be seen in Igualada after being hired by the City Council.
In this 34th edition, the exhibition widens its range of recognitions with the addition of jury prizes. Made up of professionals who know the family theater market, the Mostra Igualada jury has awarded four proposals from the fair.
One of them is Baktana, by the Laluz Company, which has been distinguished as the best street show. The piece narrates the encounter between two men, a juggler obsessed by his world of flying objects and an acrobat who only expresses himself through movement.
In the categories that focus on the public to whom these proposals are directed, An-ki, from the Ortiga company, has won the award for best show for all audiences. Through an immersive theatrical experience, An-Ki talks about the origin and destiny of humanity.
The jury prize for best show for young people went to Adeu, Jane!, from the Binomi company, which tells the story of a young woman who, at only 18 years old, must face the removal of her breast.
The jury has also recognized Sotabosc, the proposal by Inspira Teatre, with the prize for the best show for early childhood. Through music and movement, Sotabosc connects children one year and older with nature.
