L’ARREPLEGADA is a festival of live arts and a space for professional dialogue. On the one hand, it offers shows created by and for young people, and on the other, encourages reflection on emerging performance creation, with the aim of giving visibility and professionalism to new talent in the performance arts.

The festival acts as a platform to nurture a decentralised, active artistic network, with guidance and space for young and emerging artists, whether local, from around the country or from abroad, to share ideas, get to know each other and mutually enrich each other. This initiative promotes artists’ visibility and creative communication, providing a key meeting point for innovative emerging talent. Through a programme of performances, debates and professional activities, L’ARREPLEGADA offers valuable new opportunities and encourages the constant renewal of contemporary creativity.

The festival programme is drawn up in two stages to guarantee that involvement is diverse, inclusive and complete:
In the first phase, we invite artists from different backgrounds to take part in the programme so as to guarantee a rich and varied representation.
In the second phase, we open up a call for entries to the public, allowing everyone to take part, regardless of their origins, identity or previous experience.
Next, we choose the proposals received that best meet the values of the festival and bring innovative and relevant perspectives to the season, thus ensuring that the programme is diverse, fair and representative.
In the hope of promoting a variety of languages and formats in contemporary performance, the call for entries welcomes innovative proposals that explore new paths in artistic expression, tackling current concerns and avant garde themes of discussion.

LA VEREMA

La Verema is an artistic collective formed by Sira Aymerich, Magalí Camps, Nesga Magrané, Paula Ramis and Raquel Viñuales in 2021. After having shared space and time around dance and movement at the Escuela Municipal de Danza de Celrà (Gerona), they went their separate ways to follow different educational and professional paths. In recent years, they found they shared a desire to join up again as a collective with the body and movement at its core.
From this synergy grew the idea to share these feelings with a wider audience, crystallised in the concept of the festival L’ARREPLEGADA.
