Sojo Laboratorio Teatral
Information
This venue located in the district of Arganzuela, near the Puerta de Toledo, is the continuation of the former theatre project "El Burdel a escena" and the headquarters of the dsojoproduce cultural association, which has put on various different performances at several theatres around Madrid since 2009. The programming philosophy behind this new alternative venue is to select productions that are of socio-cultural importance where the real protagonists are the spectators, and its main objective is theatrical experimentation and the support of young artists to nurture local talent.
The venue has two performance spaces: 1.-Sala Negra, located by the entrance, which can seat 50 people, allowing for greater proximity to the audience. It is designed for classic and contemporary theatre productions, with minimalist staging, and 2.-Sala El burdel a escena, located in the lower part of the venue, home to the SOJOteatro theatre company where they put on in-house avant-garde proposals while maintaining the style that has defined them as a group for twelve years with shows such as: "El Casting para mayores de 18 años "Creep" "Poliamor” and "Hyenas, among others. This second space can accommodate up to 40 audience members.
In addition, Laboratorio teatral has a Performing Arts Academy that runs professional workshops for the promotion of research and theatrical enterprise.
