The show Visual poems features an actor-musician who plays a poet, carrying a suitcase full of foam lyrics. Gradually, he begins to play with their sounds and shapes, discovering that, from letters, he can create poetry without the need to build words. The show is inspired by the visual poems of the Catalan poet Joan Brossa, using his alphabet - the play of letters with which the poet illustrated his visual poetics.
