‘The night of the kiwi fish’, a fast-paced monologue by Josep Julien, with Santi Ricart

I don’t know if the kiwi fish really exists, but Josep Julien has turned it into the trigger of his latest monologue, Kiwifish night, which can be seen until June 19 at the Flyhard room in Barcelona. On the small stage, Santi Ricart narrates his escape ahead, in an hour and a half in which he captivates the public from the first minute.

Thus, a fortunate conjunction of a fast-paced text that advances without detours and an actor who defends it with solvency and without artifice, bareback. The story begins with the click that the character makes at a moment in his life where frustration prevails.

A fast-paced text that advances without detours with an actor who defends it with solvency and without artifice, bareback

An unemployed actor, whose partner is also a luckier actress, forces the protagonist to make a series of decisions that will not be reversed. He himself blurts out at one point in the story that perhaps the time has come for Thelma and Louise to jump off the cliff, but he lacks the person to hold his hand.

With his own trademark touches of humor and nods to the theatrical profession, the playwright presents a round piece, which is a good theatrical proposal, with all the ingredients of a good story. Julien also signs the address, with Pepo Blasco as an assistant. The production is by Flyhard, within his line of Catalan drama proposals that do not disappoint.
