A cycle of puppetry for young people and adults features four shows between October 16 and 24. The performances address forced migration, ecosystem destruction, and the role of women in vulnerable situations.

The first show of the cycle will be on Friday, October 16 at 5:30 PM, with "El vol de les papallones" by the company Cacauet teatre. The play tells the story of a group of insects that loses their home when a road destroys the natural space where they lived. It is aimed at audiences aged 4 years and up and is performed in Catalan.

On Saturday, October 17 at 7 PM, "El planeta perdido" by La Bayka will be presented for adult audiences. The performance combines humour and irony to discuss the relationship between civilization and nature, the exploitation of resources, and its social consequences, such as hunger or conflicts. It is also performed in Catalan.

On Friday, October 23 at 7 PM, Cia CrepaMuro Teatro presents "Esto no es amor", a production with a strong political component. A sea journey serves as a thread to discuss the conditions of immigrants, the role of women, and power relations. This performance is for adult audiences in Spanish.

The cycle concludes with "El flautista de Hamelín" by Cia. Oliveira Salcedo, on Saturday, October 24 at 5:30 PM. This is a version of the German legend in which a piper frees a city from a plague of rats, presented here as live cinema that combines lights, scenery, and objects. It is recommended for audiences aged 6 years and up, in Catalan.
