No Nos Merecemos Soñar
“No nos merecemos soñar” es una tragicomedia sobre la clase media que ya no sabe qué es, sobre la generación que heredó un futuro que nunca llegó, sobre el último refugio donde todavía se puede fingir que todo va bien. Una obra que combina emoción, música en vivo, humor y coreografías non sens.
