Created by the company Hilanderas, directed by Stephanie Prieto and performed by Stephanie Prieto and Esmeralda Sears, it draws an analogy between butterflies' lack of a physical voice and how trauma silences parts of the human body. The narrative follows a woman and her therapist on a regressive journey into childhood to uncover a secret held within the flesh, triggering a metamorphosis in which other women listen to the protagonist within the sound of her silence. After the 45-minute performance, offered in Latin American Spanish with English surtitles for ages 14 and over, Hilanderas hosts a Q&A and a Roy Hart-based workshop.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/london/events/the-voice-of-butterflies-60519/", "official_url": "https://www.voilafestival.co.uk/events/the-voice-of-butterflies/", "image": "https://noky.io/images/0e53b6b5efb173a3ed6ab8b18e3bd1a35a7ec13e53e468e751ee3a3fd1318a0a-1200.webp"}]}
