Exploring the art of imitation, Animal Religion's unique creation challenges the stigma of copying. In a fascinating blend of spontaneity and authentic expression, participating children become performers of the piece alongside Animal Religion. Through movement, sound, and light, the audience will be guided on a journey that celebrates the dialogue between originality and imitation.
To copy is a performance that brings to the stage a group of children aged 8 to 10. This group has not had any rehearsals or preparations before going on stage. Together with Animal Religion, they navigate through a playful, emotional, and eclectic performance where the only guide is copying. From a copy, an original also emerges.

"Animal Religion is a blessing for the circus and dance sector in Catalonia. Because, despite having a long career, they remain as fresh and with as uninhibited a view as the first time. And it is a view that connects, now we have been able to verify it with a very broad type of public".
