NUMB (numb, apathetic) is a multimedia, multidisciplinary street performance, built on a large-scale scenic structure. It uses video mapping and disciplines such as physical theatre and aerial acrobatics (on unconventional apparatus). The cast, also multidisciplinary, combines actors with dancers and acrobats.

This creation takes social apathy as its subject for reflection and starting point, viewed as a virus, something that seems to annihilate humanity as we understand it today. The performance confronts us with generalised dormancy and indifference, in a kind of mental trap, without past or future, a permanent hell of the same, which encloses us in multiple and repeated perceptions of a reality from which, apparently, there is no escape.
