Stuntmen, otherwise called specialists or action doubles, are those performers who either substitute for the protagonists in dangerous scenes or are cinematic victims of the violence exerted upon them. Of violence goes this supposed opera by Nao Albet and Marcel Borràs

"We are excited by the idea of risk, the thought that we can make mistakes and that this can be a creative engine," says actor and director Nao Albet to explain why, together with his professional adventure partner Marcel Borràs, he has decided to dive into opera. The artistic duo — responsible for shows like Falsestuff (2018, Premi Max)— have written, directed, and will perform from April 15th to May 3rd Els Estunmen at the Teatre Lliure de Montjuïc. It is a contemporary opera with music by Fernando Velázquez, a live orchestra from the Gran Teatre del Liceu, and 21 people on stage.
