The performance has an age limit of 18 years. Precautions: Explicit nudity, stage blood, intense imagery, intermittent loud sounds/music.

The Basement is a fictional space based on true events, where the audience is invited into a journey full of feelings and emotions difficult to describe in words. Ungraspable yet felt with intensity. Making visible the invisible.

This solo work by and with Daniel Mariblanca explores the multiple realities and fictions that arise from the dynamics expressed when power relationships are morphed. It is intuition led; allowing the body to speak through physical expression and freedom. The practice of freedom is personal and artistic, and requires labor, courage and urgency to expand beyond imposed limits of acceptability, legitimacy or beauty. 

Touch tour
