Tricicle. A story of three
|
“Tricicle. Una història de tres” is a window open to our world, a piece of our lives; lives that get all mixed up because Tricicle is a story of three; of three and many more… In this exhibition you will find a compilation of the most significant gags, objects we have used as props or as part of our wardrobe of our shows, graphic material related to them, etc. Beyond the theatre, we have also worked in television and cinema, as well as being tempted by other facets of the culture and the show business.
