JAULA
A theatrical experience of freedom and transformation
Jaula is a poetic piece that fuses clowning,
physical movement, and visual metaphor to explore the invisible chains that imprison humankind.
The protagonist is a clown with the soul of a bird,
whose gestures and movements evoke fragility and
the wild impulse to fly.
Locked inside a giant cage—a living metaphor for the limits imposed by society and those we impose on ourselves—the clown oscillates between the desire for freedom and the fear of breaking deeply ingrained patterns.
“Jaula” is both physical and symbolic: it contains ancient fears, learned roles, and inherited silences.
Through poetic body language and suggestive aesthetics, the protagonist embarks on a journey of transformation: she confronts her ghosts, questions imposed structures, and dares to imagine
a new way of being in the world.
Jaula is an invitation to open one's own inner cages,
a song to emotional, mental, and social freedom,
and a tribute to the courage to become oneself.
