TRAJECTORY
Independent and autonomous company whose guidelines are research, staging and the search for different scenic languages. Our Company seeks to facilitate access to the public with limited resources to cultural activities and take the theater to places of difficult geographical access.
The Huella Teatro seeks to generate an anthropological-scenic study, as in each of our projects we want to rescue and recover the memory.
We believe in a theater that recovers, researches and creates from there, becoming a real contribution to the cultural development of our country.
