Vai via is a poetic and musical theatre piece for children and young people aged 6 to 18. It follows Rita, an elderly woman who lives on the streets of a big city in a converted double bass case. Inside it she keeps an alarm clock, her false teeth and a picture of her children, and every night she says goodnight to them before settling down to sleep.
Performed by Iolanda Llansó, the show asks how Rita ended up there, why she always seems to wear a smile, and what her life was like before. Is it true that she was once the country's most famous female jazz double bass player? The story moves between sorrow and hope, with music at its heart.
