About Numax-Fagor-plus :
Numax-Fagor-plus is a play by Roger Bernat with a different performer in each show. The play is based on the film Numax, presenta (1980) byJoaquimJordà, with the cooperation of the former Numax workers and of the film’s crew. The play also would not have been possible without the cooperation of the Platform for Partners of Fagor, Ahots Kooperatibista and Mondraberri. 


Workshop description:
The theater is the place to rethink the community. Perhaps this is why, in recent times, the theater has become an essential tool for imagining new ways of being with the others. Politicians, architects or journalists, of very different tendencies, are inspired by theater techniques to find new ways to get people to mobilize. Participation has become a way of emancipation and at the same time, the best way to affect public opinion.

The workshop in Cairo can be seen as a collective dramatization, one that allows us to face the virtues and paradoxes of being part of a group.

About Roger Bernat:
Roger Bernat studied painting, architecture and theatre. Since 2008 he has created performances in which the audience takes the stage and becomes the protagonist. “Spectators go through a device that invites them to obey or conspire and in any case, to pay with their own bodies and commit.”
