A Max Award-winning dance piece that explores death through ritual, movement, and rhythm. 💃🖤

Ester Guntín presents Quiso negro in the Sala Gran del Teatre Principal de Palma, inspired by tarantismo, an ancient ritual from southern Italy.

💃 WANTED BLACK

📅 Sunday, September 27, 2026

🕐 7:00 p.m.

📍 Teatre Principal de Palma, Sala Gran

⏱️ Duration: 60 minutes · Recommended for ages 8 and up

📖 The proposal

Quiso negro is inspired by tarantism, which originated in the Middle Ages: the belief in the symbolic bite of a spider and the choreographic and musical practice of expelling the poison from the affected person's body. The work reinterprets this iconographic and symbolic universe through choreography and music.

The first part explores the preparation for the ritual; the second, the physical exhaustion with complex rhythms inspired by the pizzica Salento. A journey about death in each one, a festive descent.

The piece has won the Max Award 2025 Awarded Best New Author and was a finalist for Best New Show. Conceived and directed by Ester Guntín, with Marina Capel, Anna Climent, Marti Forcada, Glòria Garcia, Héctor Puigdomènech and Isaac Verdura.

🏛️ At the Teatre Principal in Palma

The event includes a free children's play area. Main Menu, with specialized staff, available for booking during the purchase process.

🦀 The crab, image of 2026

This year's official poster features a crab designed by Olaf MeyerInspired by one of the Mediterranean's most famous inhabitants, the festival's character is resilient, tenacious, and determined to forge its own path. It serves as a metaphor for the festival itself: moving differently, exploring new perspectives, and making room for stories that don't fit into the mainstream.

It also completes a visual trilogy dedicated to the marine life of the Balearic Islands:

🐟 2024 · Flying fish

🐙 2025 · Octopus

🦀 2026 · Crab
