The community theatre showcase 'Escorxador Espai Escènic' will take place at the Centro Cultural l'Escorxador – Nau 3 in Badalona during November, bringing together local companies, artistic collectives, and theatrical initiatives from the city.
This event, now in its third year, aims to highlight the city's theatrical creativity and provide a space for sharing artistic proposals in an open and participatory environment. The programme will span several weekends and will include a variety of disciplines and formats, such as musical theatre, micro-theatre, dramatized readings, performances, sound poetry, and collective creations.
The initiative also promotes the performing arts as a tool for social transformation, inclusion, and community participation, fostering collaboration between organisations and strengthening intergenerational bonds.
