ABOUT US
ThE UruguayaN COMPANY was born in the year 2015 when The two women who run this company came together after discovering they share the same needs, possibilities and contradictions both as women and artists in this society.
Understanding the present as the only reality to perform and to be themselves, these two characters decide to bring a new meaning to public spaces, turning them into street stages, in order to express themselves and transform, at least for just a moment, the here and now of the people who decide to embark on this journey with them.
Hoping to provide entertainment for the whole family without forgetting the responsibility attached to being an artist in our world, they resort to movement, skills, sincerity and also irony, to make people laugh while still thinking.
