Ferran Utzet porta a escena l’autor noruec Jon Fosse, Premi Nobel de Literatura 2023. Una obra sobre la família, tensa, bella i subtil, d’un dels grans mestres del teatre contemporani del nord d’Europa, per tancar la temporada a l’Espai Lliure. Un home i una dona d’edat avançada miren per la finestra. Esperen l’arribada del seu fill, que ha estat fora molt de temps. Cada vegada hi ha menys gent, al poble. Els joves marxen. Tothom marxa. Ja gairebé no hi queda ningú. Quan finalment el fill arriba, res no serà tal com s’ho havien imaginat. *"El fill* és una obra teatral de l’autor noruec i Premi Nobel de Literatura Jon Fosse que retrata l’impacte que provoca en una parella gran el retorn a casa del seu únic fill després d’una llarga absència. La parella viu en una zona freda i aïllada, gairebé despoblada, on la solitud és profunda i persistent. Tot i això, la retrobada amb el fill no els aporta cap calidesa ni alegria. En una mena de revers fosc de la paràbola del fill pròdig, l’únic que desencadena aquesta visita inesperada és una tensió insuportable. La comunicació entre pares i fill és gairebé inexistent i es veu encara més enterbolida per la presència de l’únic veí, un home solitari, estrany i alcohòlic que, amb les seves insinuacions, fa trontollar la ja fràgil confiança entre els personatges. Jon Fosse construeix una faula moral, un terrible poema en moviment que explora la buidor, el silenci i la dificultat de comunicar-se. Perquè els personatges d'*El fill* intenten parlar, però no se’n surten. I com va dir Albert Camus, *gairebé tots els mals de la humanitat provenen del fet de no parlar clar*." _Ferran Utzet **Fitxa artística:** **Autor:** Jon Fosse **Direcció:** Ferran Utzet **Intèrprets:** Guillem Balart *el* *fill* Jordi Figueras *el* *pare* Sebastián Mogordoy *el veí* Mercè Pons *la mare* **Entrades:** https://entrades.teatrelliure.com/selection/event/date?productId=10229412879752&lang=ca&_gl=1 **NOTES IMPORTANTS**: Cada participant gestiona la compra de la seva entrada. Us recordem que aquest grup no té cap interès comercial, és una simple trobada d'aficionats, apassionats, addictes i bojos pel teatre.

El próximo 29 y 30 de Mayo en Barcelona un grupo de bitcoiners organizan la **segunda edición de la Cyphers Conference - BCC8333**. Es un acto independiente que tiene todo el apoyo de Barcelona Bitcoin Only. En esta conferencia encontrarás ponencias y debates relacionados con Bitcoin, privacidad o permacultura. En palabras de sus organizadores: *BCC8333 aims to create a yearly gathering to unite open-source developers, builders, and freedom fighters to collaborate and find solutions to their most pressing challenges. We strive to empower individuals with the tools, resources, and knowledge needed to overcome obstacles in building accessible, secure, and privacy-respecting technologies.* *We've found that certain subjects, like bitcoin, permaculture, and privacy, are not only fascinating but also challenging to learn. We want to provide a place where people with little to no knowledge can come and immerse themselves in a wide range of topics, from the basics to advanced levels. Our goal is to create a space where anyone can come and leave as an authentic cypherpunk, equipped with the skills, and also the tools to take control of their own sovereignty. Because yes, we want to help everyone have access not just to the experiences, but also to the tools to become a real cypherpunk.* Tienes toda la información aquí: [https://www.bcc8333.com](https://www.bcc8333.com) El registro en la página del meetup no es suficiente. **Reserva tu plaza en este enlace:** [https://www.bcc8333.xyz/tickets](https://www.bcc8333.xyz/tickets)

Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience.

Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!
