PI(È)CE is an intergenerational stage creation project of Barcelona. It began in 2011, promoted and produced by the Tantarantana Theater, under the direction of choreographer Constanza Brnčić and  playwright Albert Tola. This last year we have achieved our eighth edition with great social impact and artistic success.

For ten months, annually from October to July, we have worked with different groups of people, in two neighborhoods of the city, the Raval and the Poble Sec, with high rates of immigrants and refugees. Raval and Poble Sec are also neighborhoods with very low rents and with great concentration of associations and public institutions with attention to these people and an artistic hot spot of the city.

The group of about 30 people, with whom we develop our work of creation is integrated by 3 profiles of people:

• A group of about 13/15 young immigrant students who have just arrived in the country and  whom the two high school we work with, host in special reception class-rooms so that they can adapt to the educational activities and immerse themselves in the learning of Catalan and Spanish, languages they don´t speak. They are usually young people between 13 and 17 years old from India, Pakistan, China, Morocco, Nepal, Bangladesh and the Philippines in its great majority.
• A group of about 6/8 adult refugees for different reasons (political, sexual, economic, etc) from the countries mentioned in the previous group. These adults are under the tutelage of different associations with which Tantarantana works in a coordinated manner.
• A group of about 6/8 Spanish elderly people residing in two neighborhoods in public sheltered housing. The majority are people between 70 and 85 years old who arrived in Catalonia in their youth, emigrating from other areas of Spain, that is, they have also lived being immigrants within their own country.
