Theater of the Senses

Presented by: The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust
Venue: Ellis School Armory
Wednesday, October 15 - Saturday, October 25, 2008
Tickets: $25

Experience the exclusive U.S. premiere of the Teatro de los Sentidos’ (Theatre of the Senses) El Eco de la Sombra (The Echo of the Shadow), a drama of sensory language that explores the relationship between the artist, the work and the public space - breaking any and all barriers that separate them. Teatro de los Sentidos is a Barcelona-based theater company led by founder Enrique Vargas. In this U.S. premiere of El Eco de la Sombra, audiences are fully immersed in a sensory experience that pushes the concept of traditional theater.

The event, featuring individual timed admission every 4 minutes, is limited to 53 participants per day during 10 performance days. Truly intended to be experienced rather than described, this invigorating work will evoke feelings of nervousness and uncertainty, while also engaging senses of sight, smell and touch.


Theater of the Senses is part of the Pittsburgh International Festival of Firsts series. To see all the events in this series, click here.
