Peyu and his commitment to culture outside of Barcelona
The comedian from Osona Peyu and his production company are promoting a new festival in Muntanyola called (P)ausa. This festival, which will take place in the goat pen from June 28 to July 26, seeks to take culture outside the usual surroundings, offering a space of tranquility in the middle of nature. Performances will include music and performing arts, and seating will be limited to 100 people for each show. The artists of this edition include Els Catarres, Obeses, Marina Rossell, Quimi Portet and Albert Pla. In addition to musical performances, the festival will also offer a variety of performing arts, including clowning, magic, dance, improv and comedy shows.
A festival with a message
The title of the festival, (P)ausa, seeks to convey the idea of a break in the multitudinous cultural activities of the summer months. In addition, the name also refers to the land, Ausa, which the Romans associated with the area and, more specifically, with Vic. The organizers express their intention for the public to discover both the territory and the people who live there. Likewise, the festival was born with the aim of vindicating small projects, promoting respectful tourism and making the producers of the Osona region known.
Decentralizing the cultural offer
Peyu and his production company, El Corral, have demonstrated a commitment to the decentralization of the cultural offer, seeking to bring culture outside of Barcelona. This initiative is part of the ‘Outside of Barcelona’ campaign, which was already successful with the first stable theater season. Tickets for the festival’s shows are now available on the production company’s website, www.elcorral.cat.
