Formentera gears up for Téntol, a show for the whole family in the Sant Ferran town square

The Formentera Office of Culture is pleased to report that as part of the island's plans to celebrate Sant Jordi, the Manipulats theatre troupe will be on Formentera to perform Téntol.

The 50-minute show, which will take place at 12 noon Saturday 9 April in Sant Ferran's Plaça de l'Església, is free of charge. Reservations are not required to attend.

Téntol is a circus show for families that is based on play and spontaneous movements. The two protagonists, played by Gràcia Moragues and Mateu Canyelles, string together ideas and toys and mobilise a wide range of emotions. With Téntol, Manipulats cast a plea for leisure and recreational time as a way of creating culture, singularities, communities and personalities.

In 2014 Moragues and Canyelles formed Manipulats on Mallorca after training at the Rogelio Rivel Circus Arts Center in Barcelona (2008-2010) and then at Codarts Circus Arts in Rotterdam (2010-2014). The troupe's previous collaborations include work with De Dansers, Circ Bover and Mariantònia Oliver, and they are members of Collectif Temporadas. After Mel-òdic, Salvatges and Trot, Téntol is their most recent creation.
