The work is conceived as a processional march through which atypical characters, minorities, misfits, and marginal beings pass, forming a grotesque parade where anyone who is different has a place and is free to enjoy and dance to the rhythm of a crescendo of music, without complexes, following their own laws, and accepting that there are many ways to understand life and beauty.
La obra esté enfocada como una marcha de procesión por donde van pasando personajes atípicos, minorías, inadaptados, seres marginados y marginales, que conforman un desfile esperpéntico en donde cualquiera que sea diferente tiene cabida y es libre de disfrutar y bailar al ritmo de una música en crescendo, sin complejos, siguiendo sus propias leyes, y aceptando que hay muchas formas de entender la vida y la belleza.
