The twenty-seventh edition of the Teatro de Barra has teleported the comics to the venues, which suddenly become peculiar settings where the adventures of two unique protagonists unfold, who for the occasion were the children of a pencil and an eraser and are transformed as if for art. Thus, Batman, Robin, Tintin, Karmen and Teo are the protagonists of this exercise of sleight of hand. Without going any further, Josep Ramon Cerdà, author and director ofBetween two worlds, has imagined what an encounter would be like, as casual as it is causal, between two characters imagined and drawn by the author himself, Guillem March. They are Karmen and Batman in a situation in which he, amnesiac, doesn't quite know who he is, although he thinks he's the superhero, and she, very aware that she is a two-dimensional character, will make him come down to earth and put his head in its place, because one of the main virtues of the female protagonist is ability. Aina Zuazaga is a comic book Karmen, who seems drawn, so impeccably, fantastic, and Àlex Tejedor, more human, plays the tormented and somewhat confused character with the same consistency. A complex mix, without a single phrase that doesn't have solidity and specific weight, which doesn't allow you to miss a single one. Don't do it. It's a great little piece of jewelry.

The Maruja Alfaro Mar i Terra municipal theater will host the grand finale of the twenty-seventh edition of the Barra Theater Show Competition on October 25th at 8:00 p.m., which was launched this Wednesday and is dedicated to the world of comics. The event, a well-established part of Palma's cultural calendar, has the support of Palma City Council and companies linked, for the most part, to the restaurant sector.
